Kamen is a bright guy, lets give him credit... but this "Ginger" is ... well, who would use it? i can see mailman, sure, police, yeah, on their doughnut runs ;) big warehouses, etc... but the average consumer ??? hmmm....

i\'m sure he will make some $$$ but i don\'t see the consumer jumping at this $3,000 marvel of transportation.


Too bad Kamen did not do something really useful, like get a cure for cancer/aids closer to realization...

HOLY COW.  READ THIS REVIEW


http://www.msnbc.com/news/665724.asp?0dm=C11NT

OK, this just slams the IT.  Do you think it has anything to do with MSNBC and Steve Jobs?  I mean everything the guy said was true, but boy does he ever blast it.

Electric Scooter with brake, accelerator, and balance supplied by the user... $150

Electric Scooter with brake and accelerator defined by user "tilt" and built in balance control.... $3000

The delusion that your invention is bigger than the Internet and will revolutionize cities.... PRICELESS!!

They already have similar things in warehouse\'s.. I know target    stores have them.

I think its a waste of time and a money by people who obviously have farrrrrrrrrr to much of both.

Just keep them mofos off the highway and I promise not to run anyone over...

...like I do the bicycle riders.

If this thing only costs 10 cents of electricity to operate, then why does it cost $3000?

I could see the technology itself being very useful--look some ten, twenty years down the line. Perhaps motors imitating human balance could be applied to buildings in cities which suffer from earthquakes and that sort of thing.
