Rossum's Children

Rumour has it that WowWee toys, makers of Robosapien, will be licensing the smart motion technology that keeps the Segway scooter balanced. Nobody knows what for yet though.

The only ones brave enough to publish the rumour right now (that I can find) are the people at the inquirer, so I wouldn't trust this 'scoop' much farther than I can throw it, until I hear something more official.

(special thanks to our lovely assistant for the tip)
