Now that looks COOL!
The two wheel segway was awesome looking, but this new 4 wheel version should grab more attention than before. I'm pretty sure it will be quite pricey let me go crack open the piggy bank.

I've tried the Centaur by Segway
I had the special opportunity to have a brief try of the Centaur last Sunday evening after SegwayFest 2004 in Florida. I can tell you that this thing is way cool. It can go 20 MPH and is very agile.

The greatest thing, though, is that when it pops a wheelie, it goes into balance mode like the Segway HT and will stay on the rear wheels as long and the rider wants. While up there, it is controlled just like the Segway HT by leaning forward to go forward, spinning in place, etc.

Fantastic piece of engineering.

Yeah, but...
It needs 33" tires and a 4" lift to do the Rubicon Trail.
