    there is a big launch party event happenign across the road from my office and a feature is that ye get greeted at teh entrance and you follow some dolly bird on a segway to the main event.

    so ive been workingwatching these segways passing time all day and they just look like ungainly ugly ducklings waddling about

    perhaps im just jealous

    With that in mind, how could you take these guys seriously?



    Well I guess the gun helps with the "we mean business" part but seriously, segways?!? You should see the 3 wheel version that the LAPD are riding around. Imagine getting pulled over by a segway with training wheels

    i want one...but just to use around the house...eh i would probably break things and get in trouble
    its me house but i still get yelled when i spill or break...im not sure why
    they advertise this hov-a-round chair(sp?) on tv...basically just a well made motorized wheelchair...i really really really want one
    but Madhu said if i got one i would never get out of it...she is probably not lying!
    heh...so i am just crazy man with a cane

    i've seen similar devices used for paraplegics with good results. training wheels seem like a good idea.

    like i said, when that pic was posted in another thread, "lock and load" takes on a whole new dimension.

    Nice to know that horrible drivers can get hurt on Segways, too :tongue:

    video apparently does not work when embedded, just says "Sorry, this video is no longer available" – but it works in youtube proper :happy:
