The rumour went that Segways would be manufactured out of cheaper parts, but also sell for far less then they do now: closer to $1k then $4k.  <br>However the picture is curious, as it appears to be the underside of an object, and it's hard to see how an object shaped like that would wind up being a Segway, or even an accessory to a Segway.<br>So...<br>It's probably a UFO.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ghostrider]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 3rd 2006 6:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/03/segway-human-transporter-ht-v1a-passes-fcc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/03/segway-human-transporter-ht-v1a-passes-fcc/</guid><description><![CDATA[Nice catch on the "Made in China."<br><br>Is this a gigantic, car-crushing version of the Segway that people actually sit inside?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jake]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 3rd 2006 6:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/03/segway-human-transporter-ht-v1a-passes-fcc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/03/segway-human-transporter-ht-v1a-passes-fcc/</guid><description><![CDATA[maybe it's more of a Teleporter transporter.... it can teleport an entire human up to 30 feet at 11 mbps :P<br><br>"Two to beam up"  syncing... syncing....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Zach]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 3rd 2006 6:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/03/segway-human-transporter-ht-v1a-passes-fcc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/03/segway-human-transporter-ht-v1a-passes-fcc/</guid><description><![CDATA[From everything I read it sounds like a bluetooth key fob.<br><br>I don't know much about seqways.. but maybe they are making a key system that will work better than the RFID stuff that has been cloned recently.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[BeDammit]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 3rd 2006 6:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/03/segway-human-transporter-ht-v1a-passes-fcc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/03/segway-human-transporter-ht-v1a-passes-fcc/</guid><description><![CDATA[Did you guys notice the size of this thing?
