... not to mention it's ugly... BUt when they mention it pulls itself up, don't they mean that it only makes the rider vertical? I don't think the reporter had any idea when making comparisons to the Segway.

Sorry that is street legal only. It takes up room atleast of four people. A glorified wheel chair that does 60 mph. Where is the windshield?

Since there are no spinners on the wheels, it will never make it commercially. Let's not worry about it...

I like it! Come on folks, it's a concept. Although there is just one minor modification I'd like to make. Adjust is so a Segway docks right in the front and the controls integrate right in. Then you can go rolling down the highway a fair distance, pull into a really tiny parking space as the i-unit (gotta work on that) contracts into half it's open road length, open the forward door/windscreen and glide out onto the sidewalk.
