Thank you for this information airdale.
So where are we with custom hacks and such. if a 12 year old can hack an iPhone, have we made any progress on retraining our $6500 toys?

If I am reading correctly, the X2 is more ruff and tumble for offroad conditions and will accept a jostle or two while powering through the woods... but it really does not run on sidewalks so well.

Have you actually tried to mount the tires on opposite machines? I Believe the i2 wheels are a smaller diameter where the rubber hits the road, and that the X2 has more power torque to turn those larger wheels up hills and such... so I am imagining that the X2 model with i2 wheels should be like a Tesla in berserka mode.

*( please keep in mind that I don't really have any hands on experience or first hand knowledge with either a Segway or a Tesla.... at least not yet )
