The Segway is not as revolutionary as what it had been hyped, but is still has a place nonetheless. In warm climates with crowded streets. Places such as Taiwan, where motor scooters outnumber cars and greatly pollute the air, benefit the most from Dean's new device.

Americans love to drive their cars, listen to the radio and shop on the way home. Will we develop the same love affair with the Segway?

Being from Michigan, I also have to wonder about the weather. Somewhat ironic for me to imagine all of us FIRSTers traveling back to the airport after kickoff with our 70 lb crates in tow up the snow covered hills of Manchester!
