IT's called Segway [from haddock]. Wow. It turns out Ginger is a personal transportation device that kind of senses what you want to do -- lean, and it moves there. That's roughly how horses work, so finally we've got a piece of technology that does what you want, minimal mental friction. (Paradoxically, that's going to take some getting used to. We're used to controls.) I just want to get this in before the inevitable backlash starts later today and everybody claims they hate Ginger and always have done. One: "Segway" is an ultra cool name. It sounds like something from Epcot or Tron or something. Two: No controls! Like a horse on a unicycle! Uses the same motor controls we've evolved over 6000 years of external propulsion! THE FUTURE IS NOW.
