It's still hard to tell from those videos how hard it is to stop fast, and they did mention that it was hard to balance when you're not rolling. So, I don't know how well it would work in NYC crowds, Lil.

Great observation. SegwayDan. And yes, the lady in the video makes it look effortless. I'm also petite so she's a good example for me.
In NYC, there are some areas with smooth pavements, wider sidewalks, fewer crowds. Then you turn a corner and it's the opposite.
A device like this would be great (I think) because I could hop off and carry it when I stumble upon unfavorable conditions.
