Oh that is so cool! Looks like Ed Elric's arm.
 I liked the Segeway, I tried to ride one smashed at the marina once...almost did a Bush!

Kamen is some kind of whiz all right. They didn't say how people control the arm, I know electrodes in the brain are still in the experiments on monkeys category so that can't be it. They say scar tissue gradually impairs the function of that.
I saw a bit on 60 Minutes (I think) where some guy who was a double amputee, IIRC, at any rate, no use of legs, used one for just about everything. The guy got enormous grief from yay-hoos who just assumed he was too lazy to walk.
