A walking gait is really a series of aborted falls. You lean forward and then move your feet to keep from falling over. The segway operates from the same principle. It's motors are designed not to go forward or back, but instead to keep you from falling. When you lean forward, the wheels go forward in an attempt to keep the center of gravity over the wheels.

companies in general make it as difficult as possible to redeem rebates because they gamble that most people will be too lazy to redeem them - another annoyance is that the checks they send you back often have a tight window for cashing them - so beware.
All things considered, I still think the iPod is the superior portable player on the market - and I'm NOT an Apple fan. We own two, a 3rd generation and a 5th generation and both function well. I myself am waiting for the much anticipated full screen video touchscreen iPod that will actually make it a viable portable video player.Got Kneecaps?

Leti bought me a Sandisk Sansa E220 as a 5th anniversary present. It's a 2GB and holds about 270 songs. Plus it has a slot to insert a micro-flash memory disk to expand it's memory.
Leti really did her homework and since I am VERY hard on electronic stuff, so she figured a flash memory MP3 player would be the most dependable and reliable for me.
I absolutely love it!!! The only thing I hate about it is the fact that's it's soooo hard to get accesories for it, as opposed to accesories for Ipods

So are you going to use it as a TV, or a computer monitor, or both?
I've been thinking that I'd like to put a 27" or so on my docking station at work so I can work with some massive spreadsheets and such, but I'm waiting for prices to come down.The only thing missing from that Marvin Jones touchdown reversal is that it wasn't a first round playoff game.
