    The problem I have with the Segway is it doesn't get you fast enough to your designation rationalize not walking. I think Segways would have have flew off the shelves if their speed was as fast and safe as a bike.

    This would work on so many levels here in London. It would avoid the congestion charge being both a scooter and electric, its size would avoid those hugely expensive parking bays and security issues as you could take it into the office and onto the train home and it would avoid you looking like a complete moron standing on one of those loopy Segways. A brilliant concept that should fly off the shelves if ever made commercial.

    If the folded up unit could follow you around like an obedient robot rather than you having to pull it like luggage it would be awesome.
