Bravo!

Wow, what a beautiful website. More than a couple times with the video I had the distinct feeling I was right there with you. If I couldn't have a Segway for christmas, you have given me the next best thing. Thank you! Happy riding!

Great job!

With my 56K modem it will take me awhile to explore your site fully, and then you'll probably change it 5 times before I get through it.

No problem though, keep up the good work.

Excellent job on the site pt. In spite off all that I have read about the Segway your personal account was still very interesting. I havent gone through everyting yet though.

There are somethings on your site that I will try to get a discussion on here.

Absolutely brilliant. Well done, pt (and fg!)!

Especially like the pics of the innards, gears, etc. Takes it from in-the-box magic to darn fine engineering.

Your site will sell more units than Segway's!

I can't help but wonder about the activation ring. Not having seen a Seg, I had a picture in my mind of putting the key in a keyhole similar to a car. How is the key used to activate the Seg, that a ring will also work?

Now I am picturing something similar to a ring a person might wear that would allow only that wearer to fire a gun. These exist also but I haven't seen one. Looks like Google time again.

the "ring" is something i made, i happen to like the idea of wearable security.

the "keys" are just a metal disc with a chip inside, you place it in a recessed area for about a sec, and then remove it- the unit turns on (provided it's your key) and then you're good to go.

here's a video that has the key:

OK, my wife has a key to the ATM machine she is responsible for, and it looks identical to the Segway key on your site. Now that she has explained its operation I realize it is only used momentarily to activate the lock. That being the case, I understand how the ring will work. Nice idea.
