Looks very Southern Cross Robotech!

I see a Bombardier logo, which means these were developed with Canadian Taxpayers Money, which means we'll all get one free, right?

i like how it's powered by a hydrogen fuel cell. so this means it doubles as a bomb?

it doubles as a bomb?

right, since there are _absolutely_ no problems carrying 12-30 gallons of a highly combustive liquid fuel onboard a two-ton hunk of steel & ceramic...

How the hell do you balance on it? I know it says it has gyroscopes but woah. It looks bizarre.

I saw some police lady on a segway in Atlanta and seriously couldn't stop laughing for like 5 mins.

when they finally develop repulsorlift/anti-grav technology, this'll all be ignored anyway...

Its "landing gear" deploys at 12 mph, which is the maximum speed on a Segway...so this little shit's probably pretty fast!

There are TWO segway cops here in town. When one rode during the 4th of July parade this year, everyone pointed and laughed.

twenty years pass...

I wouldn't buy one, but I am impressed at how these things have developed in 20 years
