I just saw a Honda ad that showed their motorcycles, cars, jetskis, atv's and dirtbikes. At the end it said "And you thought we just made cars." So I kinda mumbled that they didnt show Asimo, and my sister thought i was talking about the Segway.

Now im wonderin, could Asimo ride a Segway?

Actually Honda has been showing Asimo in a couple of commercials that have been appearing recently.

Does it have a balance sensor? Or six? :p

All it needs is a balance sensor and a program upgrade to be able to use the controls, and you have your first segway riding robot.

I wonder if you could then use an army of them to take over the wor-err, nevermind, I'm talking to myself...
