Tonight at 9 on Discovery Channel. Expect the Segway to be involved in one way or another, because it was in the preview. I'll post the review tomorrow.

I saw that ad last night. At first I thought it was a show about good inventions and the Segway was a feature, but it looks like it's about 'amateur' inventors competing for a prize. I'll watch it anyway.

edit: note it's 9pm EST

I also saw the commercial for the show (thnx for reminding me, i forgot about the show)...

Wonder if they will have something about Dean on there since they did show the Segway in the commercial.

I guess we will just have to wait and see..(now it's time to figure out what channel the Discovery Channel is here :))

Ok, review.

A half decent show. There will be more. I liked the Zap-a-Trash!
But to Dean. They did a bit with him and the Segway (showing a bit more processed Segway LLC fotage than I want). Showed something I want in my room, a gian picture of a Segway tooling Ensine in suburbia.

I stumbled onto that show just as it started.

the 5 min bit on the segway was worth watching but the rest was may i say junk. :)

I was supposed to be doing my CIS exam when I typed it, so sue me ;)

I'll try to upload the segment.
