I agree totally, Michael.. The possibilities are now endless, and college campuses are the perfect places to begin.. If you really think about it, most campuses are built to be a sort of utopian society, a place where everything integrates perfectly..

As for my thoughts on the actual machine?? Well, it is an interesting concept.. The fact that there is no longer a need for exaust fumes is a big plus in my book.. As for the speed, well I think that it's only about 10-15 mph because of limits in technology today.. Of course the Segway is an offshoot of the IBOT, and ten to one says that the IBOT only gets about 10-15 mph as well..

In summary, it's the idea and not the machine that impressed me.. Yes, the Segway was a bit of a let down, but that's probably only because I thought it was gonna be a teleporter.. Hehe..
