    Looks cool. Who will be the first here to own one?

    Doesn't that kind of defeat it's purpose?

    This is why GM is going bankrupt spending money on something like this.

        umm yeah! it does.

        Why not just buy a moped, atv, or anything small and mobile instead of that?

        Doesn't even look any good.

          Now you don't need to be disabled to ride in a wheelchair.

            Could you imagine what it feels like as it's trying to balance itself?

            Instant nausea machine.

              Have you ridden one or are you just pulling things out of your anus?

                It's supposed to help city congestion, but I don't really see that happening. A crazy cabbie vs that thing and that thing is toast in any sort of accident. I could see it being used on golf courses and in old age communities.

                    Cab vs bicycle, motorcycle, pedestrian = toast too, whats your point?

                      I see it being outlawed for sidewalks.

                          Have you (Ozarkz) ridden one (of these new Segways) or are you (Ozarkz) pulling things (random useless information) out of your (Ozark's) anus (the place you poop from)?

                            Why the fuck would you take my comment that seriously?

                            You're an idiot.

                            Obviously no I haven't ridden in one.

                            But i've ridden a Segway quite a bit and know how it feels as it slightly rocks back and forth to balance itself.

                            Commonsense would lead someone to believe this Segway uses the same sort of technology/technique.

                                        I really made you angry enough to call me names? I'm sorry man, I didn't mean it. If I'd known you were so depressed I wouldn't have tried to slightly joke around what you said.

                                          Anyone who has ever even touched a seggay is a flaming homo and anyone who uses one should be shot in the face and that's the truth!

                                            based that solely on aesthetics, segways are lame. They're probably very useful for some people.

                                            Sorta...

                                              WTF is the fascination with it balancing on two wheels. Put two little front wheels on it and it will cost 90% less. But then you would just have a regular golf cart, which is what it is.

                                                  True, excellent point

                                                  The Segway inventor has been trying to make his creation profitable for years and it's done nothing but lose money. Maybe because travelling on 4 wheels is cheaper and much more practical. I love the technology itself and it has great uses, but this is not one of them.
