Wow, Michael, got WDI contacts....
A recent Disney press release said that they would use them in shows and for rental. This was durring the opening of the Innoventions WDW exhibit.
The reason why they can't let you ride is if you get injured, you can sue Segway and/or Disney, because they aren't insured for the Segway's. Also, when you buy one, you wave the right to sue if you are using the Segway in it's correct form. Not so if you ride it in the parks. Those CM's that use it in Innoventions have signed legal wavers if anything happens.
Also, just because an Imagineer dosn't ok it, dosn't mean they woun't allow it. With Burbank how it is now, they will do anything for plublicity and money. The only problems I could see was stealing. If they run off with a Segway, what will they do? You could put down a huge down payment, $3000 some per, but that will scare away customers.
BTW, Michael, do you know the Mission: Space ride system?
