Re: Segway to offer financing option

According to the article above Segway and GE are offering financing for the Segway now. Interesting how this comes out soon after the article about the possible IPO.
Note that all GE companies work semi-independently of each other for the time being, and GE Financial is not the same as GE Appliance division.

Whether or not in a few years if your GE Financial financed Segway breaks down, you can call 1-800-GE-CARES to get the appliance division to send a repair person out to go service your Segway as well as your home appliances, remains to be seen.
(I hope so though, as I know a person who does just that, services GE appliances. )
Hmmm.. will this soon mean GE employees can get discounts on Segway's now too?? Sweet!

And.......
Inquiring minds want to know, could it be also linked to this announcement that GE and Credit Suisse made on Wednesday morning?

If it is, no wonder why Segway would be going public. When you play with the big boys, you need to be on the same playing field. (ie: Able to be heavily invested in publicly)
