Re: the segway just got a whole lot cooler
*sigh*
As much as I respect Dean as an inventor and as incredibly cool as his inventions are, it seems to me that the Segway and this mini-car suffer from the same problem: they solve a problem that doesn't exist.
It must be significantly better than legs, affordable, not subject to massive liability issues wrt transportation safety, etc...
OR significantly better than a car, affordable, not subject to massive liability issues wrt transportation safety, etc...
And as the Segway replaces legs in a rather cool but non-cost-effective way, this seems to replace legs + umbrella + backpack in a rather cool non-cost-effective way.
