There are a few stories now running in the press that the Segway that Kamen introduced to the world is not the Ginger of legend. There are some interesting facts including one person in the know, Robert Metcalfe, saying “Some months ago when speculation was running high, I said that Kamen’s It was more important than the Internet, but not as important as cold fusion, had cold fusion worked out. The It I was talking about, which I did not disclose, was NOT Segway. That’s all I can say.” So was the Segway something to divert attention or was it the real deal?
