the ht is not and most likely never will be a medically approved device ever....so as hubbah said, you won't find segway offering up suggestions on how to modify the ht.
Well, while Segway LLC says in their Terms and Conditions:
Quote:
quote: 3. Not a Medical Device. The Product has not been designed, tested, or approved as a medical device. The rider must be able to step on and off the Product, which requires physical abilities similar to climbing and descending stairs without assistance and without holding the handrail. Therider's weight must be at least 100 pounds and must not exceed 250 pounds. The rider must be able to operate the steering control with the left hand.
I don't think the statement that it "most likely won't be a medically approved device ever" can be little more than one opinion.... and certainly should be better phrased from one who styles himself a Segway expert. Just my opinion.

I agree with you Richard and YES Pam, pt does come off as Segway cop and expert. Everyone's experience with the Segway is beneficial to this site and because one person may have had his longer than others, does not make his experience more unique. We are all coming from different backgrounds, abilities and needs.
