Re: Segway at Disneyland Innoventions

Before getting on a Segway they briefly go over the controls, and even talked about Dean Kamen. I also noticed another off road Segway in innovations House of Tomorrow. Very cool, good advertisement.
MrsK and I stumbled across the hidden Segway test drive when we were at WDW last summer*. They had two machines running and, like Barry said, you just had to sit through a short intro before an even shorter test drive. I guess keeping it so well hidden keeps the line down... (Oh, and yes, MrsK thought riding the Segway was really cool, too)

* Our first empty-nest trip, but not, I'm quite certain, our last!
