Segway too complicated?

[KenWittlief]

you had to click on the link to see the reference - its too complicated because all it needs is a castor, instead of all those gyros and SW controls (that was the links premise anyway)

as for the price - I believe they are targeting the high end and the commercial and professional users - after Segway has been on the sidewalks for a while, being ridden by Mailmen and delivery people, cops and meter maids

then how can a cop tell you "you cant ride that thing on the sidewalk, street...!"

they are setting the precident first, then the lower cost segway machines will show up on the market.

Sorry if I offend anyone with this but I wonder how long it will be until we see the Chinese spinoffs of the Segway. You know what happened with the Razor scooter.

at least 20 years? DK has a very tight patent on the technology used in the Segway and Ibot.

How many years until there is a Segway/iBot? I'd looove one of those.. Climbing stairs and being maneuverable and balanced. I think that would be amazing....I can't wait..need money now.
