Segway gains a seat

Segway, the scooter whose ability to carry a standing passenger at a trot has so far failed to revolutionise human life, has gained a surprising new feature: a seat. The seat, from independent company SegSeat, is a BMX-like seat which attaches to the upright of the transporter, and can be folded flat if the user wants to stand up. Appropriately for the Segway, which costs around $4,000, the seat comes at $750.
