NOTE FROM KIM:
All 6,000 Segway human transporters sold to date
have been recalled for a software upgrade.


The Top 6 Signs Your
Segway Needs a Software Upgrade


6> Rebooting requires an actual boot.

5> The on-board computer keeps calling you “Michael.”

4> Software errors make “stair-climbing mode” virtually interchangeable with “attempted suicide mode.”

3> You keep hitting Ctrl-Alt-Delete but the truck is still heading towards you.

2> SegwayOS v1.0 is obviously incompatible with SegwayMarketingHype v12.3.

and the Number 1 Sign Your Segway Needs a Software Upgrade…

1> Now you know who Microsoft sold “Bob” to.
