Default Robin, a Chinese built PT, priced around $2k

$2k seems like too much, for what it is, but I'd love to have a PT with this kind of portability.

They'll have to call it "Batman" for the American market, though.

It's kinda cute, and would be great for smooth, flat pavement on dry days. It could be a dingy for an i2.

Does Segway not have patent protection in the countries where Robstep claims to be selling the M1? The company readily admits to copying the HT.

There are a ton of videos of the M1 on YouTube - some impressive, some funny. Check out the 'Out of the box' video, in which the base is referred to as the 'car body', and the noise it makes during self-check as a 'bumming' sound.

It is my understanding that this is the sound made by the version sold in China.
