How could the Segway panned out differently? (Serious question). I was quite exited to see it at first, but realistically it doesn't have many advantages over a bicycle, and a lot of disadvantages (biggest one is price).
- pjmlp 13y agoIt gets used a lot in Europe for tourist group rounds around the cities. :)
- JanezStupar 13y agoI'm an European and I didn't see a Segway in person until I visited Florida. There I saw loads of security personnel riding Segways. And they looked so incredibly dorky with their plump bodies and tucked in shirts.
- pjmlp 13y agoI already seen Segways routes in Düsseldorf, London, Athens, Nice, Frankfurt Airport.

The product is very cool, I'm glad they took a risk on this and there will be a nice payoff for society of not them directly. Has anyone seen the cheap Chinese segway that works strictly at the shoe level? They loon very cool, but I'm too afraid to try it. Haven't seen them in use outside of china yet. Imagine seeing someone standing on a roomba going really fast.
