Today Show Segway Announcement

Re: Today Show Segway Announcement

Could it be.. That this listing was a little early?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=11329&item=8146530 215&rd=1

Unless new versions of segway's are powered by a sterling engine and that is the announcement, I'm guessing that the Centaur is going to be unveiled as open to be bought by the public.

Re: Today Show Segway Announcement

I'm going with a variety show of Segway LLC. Batteries, Centaur, possibly a redone (revamped) P model, announcement of a new CEO, etc, etc. Just a whole bunch of info throughout the morning show on Segway and its happenings.

Re: Today Show Segway Announcement

Let's be serious everyone...
A tech company doesn't go on the today show if they're announcing better batteries or a new CEO. They have obviosly developed a new product. I'm going with Elgin on this one and say we're about to see the Centaur go public. In my opinion, this is where the Segway technology will shine.

Yay!!

DOH!! I just thought of something.

I liked my idea of the centaur going public too.. but maybe the whole company is going public.

Could Segway stock soon be available?

AHHH!!! I hate waiting!!!

Adding to the speculation,
Elgin

Re: Today Show Segway Announcement

Yes. Segway has made a new product. It's the HT mixed with an ATV. Popular Science had an article on it.

Re: Today Show Segway Announcement

Yes, articles for the Centaur have been out for over a month now. I just doubt the only thing Segway would be appearing for is the "showing" of a concept transporter.

No, Segway has not made a new product. They are developing a new toy, but as the PopSci article says, "The Centaur won’t necessarily become a consumer product."

I just hope it lowers the cost of the Segways that are available as of now. That would make it easier for me to get one .

Re: Today Show Segway Announcement

Dont count on it being the Cent.

And Its possible that the new product will use the new batteries and a similar set will be available after the first of the year for current HT's.

It makes sense that segway would release a low cost machine at the start of the Holiday season.. the problem is it will have to ship in time for christmas.

And as the 501 kids can tell you it does not look like segway is running any new models off the line right now.

Re: Today Show Segway Announcement

Hold up, they could be announcing the new batteries, but is the Segway GT out yet.

http://www.engadget.com/entry/6180865775353843/

I'm not sure if this is out, but it could be part of what is to come?

I don't know I'm just a college student doped up on cold eeze and LiveWire. I have a massive cold, do not hold me responsible. AHAHAHAHAHA the stuffage and the sniffelage.

a very sick ives

Re: Today Show Segway Announcement

The Segway GT is not a model from Segway LLC. It was made up of 3rd party accessories by Segway OF America, one of Segway LLC's dealers in Texas. There will be an accessory available soon from Segway LLC that allows a golf bag to be attached to the Segway HT.
