The new segaway human transporter

I was fascinated to know the long waiting scooter was for sale. It seems amazon is the only shop which sells this scooter and this costs 5000$ (oops!! i can buy a better car!). This scooter is now seems been given out for rent. Economic times article spoke about this. Seems this scooter runs on the battery (eco-friendly) and also contains a GPS so that the thieves cant steal it.

But what shall happen, if the thieves are intelligent (anyway!).

The sad news is the scooter is available for rent only in spokane, the second largest city in washington state. Rentals cost as much as $20 for each 30-minute increment, for up to 90 minutes Users can also pay $5 for a test drive, or "pre-glide" :)

But i would like to try one..

Anyway, Anand would be off to US for the Teched @ Dallas, i can ask him to try it if he can find one there :) i bet he is as adventurous as he claims to be :).
