I think he was brake checked and hooked off the cliff. They probably will make it look like a suicide. ;D I'm blaming Toonces.

didn't the guy who invented the thing live in New Hampshire?  Sad to see the new owner go like that.  I've wanted a segway for years but damn they are expensive.

Yup...Dean Kamen.

A riding buddy used to work there as an engineer. I guess it was less than pleasant.
