Segways in Asia. At least, a market!

So the Segway, which never really did cause the pedestrian revolution they hoped for, has found a market. Security forces in China and, it turns out, Japan, are using it. For what, I don't know: standing around all day is harder than walking, IMO, and these guys will run a lot faster than a Segway will roll... But hey, whatever. Money to burn and all that.


But check it out: heavy duty or what? The Japanese guy (right image, left rider) has GUN PLATFORMS!

And those Chinese guys on the left... Do they ride around like that, balancing precariously, guns drawn? It's like some sort of circus-act for the armed and ridiculous.

The Americans had fooled the two nation, I don't think the Urban residents won't laugh at this baby carriage. :D
