I'm not so sure about this device, some people have had accidents with those Segway (not sure of spelling) things, despite theoretically being hard to fall off.

Interesting device nonetheless, and like many things like this, the technology will find its way into something even more useful in the end.

It may well be, but I'm lazy!

Well, thinking of the Asimov robot, there is a new exoskeleton which can help paralysed people walk, go up stairs etc (was on the news earlier this week, made in Israel I think). The solution for Norman might be an Asimov he can sit inside, tell it where he wants to go, then sleep while it walks him there ;-)
