although segway news beat ’em by a week, a few major publications are reporting the rumour that segway isn’t ginger:
“THE CLAIM REVOLVES around inconsistencies between the description of Ginger contained in publicity for a book written by journalist Steve Kemper and the actual scooter-like invention. There are also some alleged patent irregularities.”
i’m still voting for the hovercraft theory, just because it makes like a little more tolerable.
