Default Segway was not the IT invention

Bob Metcalfe, close friend of Dean Kamen, who saw the real IT, says Segway was NOT "It"

Spliff, this isn't on topic for the Segway forum so I've moved it here.

No problem man. I believe Metcalfe has something on his mind and I can't wait until he tells us! However, at this point, 99.9% of the world believes that Ginger=Segway HT, including Dean Kamen and his entire staff so I'm satisfied as far as that theory goes.

But the question is, "What is 'IT' that Metcalfe is talking about?"

That sounds like a fun topic.

Could the 'it' that he is refering to be the stirling engine? That will truly change the world....

It definitely could be the stirling. We have discussed this topic to death at TIQ.
