  1. Price charged was not the price shown. on Websites For The Frugal? · · Score: 1

    You have to really watch it when you shop Amazon.com for deals. I have had times where I submitted my order and it was showing one price and then Amazon.com charges more than they said. When you email them about the problem, they try to explain the free shipping (even when that wasn't even your question) to you. You have to keep emailing them to finally get the overcharge resolved. If you are using one of the checkcards and your checking account is low on funds, I would suggest shopping someplace else that actually charges you what they say they will instead of Amazon.com otherwise you may end up having to eat overdraft fees...

  2. Segway recall on Eight Biggest Tech Flops Ever · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I thought it was so funny when they finally figured out that Segways would flop over when they had little or no power. Anybody with half a brain would have realized that power to the electronics and motors keeps it upright and without power it would fall over. In my opinion, the single speed Segway is not a good idea. Now if it had variable speed you could go with the crowd without mowing everyone over. The price would also have to come down drastically for it to really be a "big hit".
