My Segway HT "Month-iversary"

Posted by timothy on from the the-longest-30-days dept.

Phillip M. Torrone writes "I didn't realize it, but I've been using a Segway HT for one month as of 01/04/03. To put it simply--it's been great and the HT has exceeded all expectations, I'm cautiously optimistic that this was a great purchase and look forward to the next 30 days. You can read, see and hear about my experiences here: http://www.bookofseg.com." I have yet to see one of these in real life, but they do look fun.

    From the article:

    washington is one of the 32+ states that have specific legislation that states that the segway ht can go anywhere a pedestrian can go

    Fascinating that they can pass a law that allows the Segway to go up ladders.
