Hehe, in the linked article "Defying Gravity", there's a mention that Segway's being very careful who they sell these guys to, since injury lawyers are already lining up to sue Segway the second someone get hurt riding one.

I don't see a case for this without a cargo platform of some kind on it. If it let mail carriers take longer routes with a greater weight, that would be useful. In a large warehouse, such a thing would be good for picking parts to fill orders. For getting around town, I can walk or ride a bike; the Lord knows I could use the exercise.
