I think they should push it even further...
Make the Segway-HT even more transparent. If possible, smaller wheels... narrower base.. Maybe no handle bar? If that is all possible without sacrificing performance characteristics and safety - then I think they should do it. Make it smaller.. lighter.. something truly wearable. Regards, Frank A. Tropea |

From the patents we have seen, such versions are in the works.

If Segway is something that does play a major role in future transportation, it will almost certainly have to maintain that 'small footprint' reputation. |

As for Asia, 'YES' the lack of modernization does exist. Segway should keep in mind that they (ex. China) are booming in getting their country modernized. The pace as of late(past 10 yrs)has been increasing and have the resources to back them. You guessed it, their own government. One has to wonder if Segway is making the right push to these nations to get them to prep up for the Segway-HT. Or if these nations are keeping into consideration that the Segway-HT might be something that will be used in their own respective countries. |
