Because Segway's aren't lazy enough....

Ok, admittedly, it does have potential for those who now have no mobility and trouble standing.
Hundreds of "lazy" mall cop jokes come to mind though when I first saw it.
And no, if you're a mall security who uses a Segway, I'm not calling you lazy.
I worked at a mall for 6 of my teen years, and I knew several who were.
It was before the Segway's time though. (I'm old)

*chuckle*
I like wimp.com
It usually plays better for me than youtube, and the material seems slightly more intellectual for the reasonably small amount it gets daily.

I'm sure the gyro response and omni-wheels speed could so be hacked. :D

Excellent idea, I think I'll get Zykkie one.. But I first need to find a way to make it spin in circles.  ;D

I think I've seen this before. I can't wait for the future when my brain is going to be hooked up into a giant computer so I can stop performing these menial tasks like walking and lifting.
