I was on the way home from FIRST PLACE of all places when I saw This sign on the Side of the road! I pulled over and grabed my digital Cam out of my back-pack and snapped this pic!
Its in the Home Town of the Segway and Dean Kamen, Manchester NH. IF you are familiar with the area go check it out, Its a couple streets up from Deka on Webster Street, across the street from Bunnies and Stanly's Barba Shop (thats where I get my Hair cut!!!!!!) http://www14.brinkster.com/htownradio/Sell%20Segway.jpg -Matt ![]() |

I got an error when I clicked on the link.
Man, that is funny. But hey, anything to get Dean's attention, right? |

I talked to Dean Today, He said he had no idea about the insurance company!

Would the insurance be for safety precautions or would it be for damage, accident and theft? I thought you couldn't fall off a Segway? And wouldn't it be pointless to steal one if it needs an unique key to start it?

1st- I dunno wut it covers. Of you want, call the number thats on the sign
2nd- Yes it is possible to fall off the segway, I'v seem it happen 3rd- Any hacker can crack the puny 64bit encryption, Segway even has "Demo Keys" that can work on ANY Segway. |

Now the Segway doesn't sound as appealing as it did in the beginning.

errrr... Matt, slight error in your comment about the Hacking. I dont know if that was an old post or you weren't there for the Q&A session of one of the demos. But, if the Segway detects any type of hacking going on, it erases its programming and source code rendering it useless... (I think I have that right.)
And there are only a few Demo keys and i'm sure they are kept under lock and key. |

BUT, in theory you could back-up the source code, edit it, re-render it and then upload it back onto the segway. So you could creat a code that would accpet any key.
And dude, I was standing right next to you. ![]() |

I found a article on hacking the segway. The AI foundation already did it!
