Ah capitalism... Amazon has a few Segways now available for purchase via an auction. So how bad do you want a segway...?

Isn't it supposed to be out later this year, anyway? I thought I saw somewhere that it will be widely available late 2002.

I would rather buy a new car! $26,000.00 is too much for a scooter!

I saw a cartoon a few months back with a recliner with Segway wheels attached. That's the only way the American public is going to buy these things, outside of New York at least...

Quite posibly one of the best inventions of this generation. This guys definitely has the inventive touch, first to invent the wheel chair that climbs stair. This may not be the final form of his product but more is likely to come from its design. Especially its motor and balance. I think UPS is supposed to test its effectiveness in its warehouse.

This device may have specific applications but I can't seriously seeing it becoming part of mainstream life.

I just saw a guy down the street zooming around on a Segway in the parking lot. I looked really fun (and useful for a lazy guy like me).
I read somehere that some postal workers are doing tests with it and have found some problems such as unloading it from the truck at certain stops, dealing with curbs, and being unable to sort mail as they go (which they normally do as they walk).
