Reuters, Japanese obstacle course may put brakes on scooter (2002Ja14 AFR: fifteen year old Japanese patent anticipates the Segway Human Transporter; but it seems the US patent will get its 20 years everywhere else (thanks to TRIPS?). "Legal experts say that while it may be difficult for Professor Yamafuji or anyone else to challenge Mr Kamen's US patent, the American inventor could run into trouble if Segway tries to sell the scooter in Japan.")
