Put me down for three. These things will be pretty cool, or the end of the world.

Makes $5K for a Segway seem downright reasonable.

They make you promise not to use it? I can just see it now. Some guy goes to the company to buy one, he writes the check, they give him the machine. Then as he's getting ready to leave:

"How are you getting home? I didn't see you drive up."

"Uh...a...friend of mine is giving me a ride. He has a...really big truck. I'll just go outside and see if he's here yet..."

SWOOSH.
