New Segways still make you look funny

Segway has released the i2 and x2 featuring Lean Steer technology, enabling you to steer according to leaning body movements. The i2 zips around at 12 mph for a duration of 24 miles and is available in i2 Police, i2 Commercial Cargo and i2 Commuter packages.

The x2 is Segway's answer to a two-wheeled off-roading adventure (cut short at a 12 mile range), equipped with a special fender and all-terrain tires, available in x2 Police, x2 Adventure and x2 Golf packages.

Let's hope these new models boost Segway's less than savory profit margin. In the meantime, if being the butt of alternative transport jokes is your thing, you better snatch 'em up while they're hot.

thanks deez

Since the Segway is so weird and ground-breaking already, why not skip the handlebars while we're at it? That would sell it.

It is kind of funny to see these new Segways above a post showing a bicycle. Bicycles are the most efficient means of transportation ever invented. Simple is usually better.
