Agreed; this thing is destined for page 12 of the Sharper Image catalog, next to the robot dogs.

To put this into context, for $8000 I can buy two Boattail Buick Rivieras, and a full-length pimp ermine coat; and when I drive it on the sidewalk, I won't have to worry about people will getting in my way.

I'm intrigued by the Seg-way. If it makes sense I'll have one.

Y'all need to think before you go around wedgie-fying folks. Some of us have been waiting since our post-high school growth spurt for someone to try that again.

We all know this thing will BE a Riviera in know time.

Soon will come the airbag, seatbelts, AM/FM/8-track/Cassette/CD-changer-DVD player, cell-phone mic/speakers/dc-adaptor, power-lumbar, etc accessories and before you know it, you're checkin' the color charts to try and make your "Segway-Riviera" look different than your neighbors.

How much do you suppose a pimp ermine makes in one evening? Are they a good investment?
