What is the segway human transporter?

What ever happened to the Segway Human Transporter?
Last I heard it was being tested by the US Post Office. It hasn't become a transportation sensation. Why not?
Tough to pick a best answer. Thanx to all!
Security at my alma mater college, Caltech, uses it to zoom around. Yes, I pointed and laughed. It's practical, though, because the walkways are wide and there's good visibility.
It's not a transportation sensation because it can't practically be used on existing roads, and there aren't enough wide walkways and sidewalks with good visibility! Also it's expensive.
