The day all six of you have been waiting for is finally here: the new line of Segways has been announced! At any rate, it seems the good folks behind the Segway have made up for the short comings of the original model by adding that consumer favorite “practicality.” Take the XT for instance, with it’s wide tires for adventures beyond the bike path. Or the GT model, which steers the Segway towards a purpose more suited to what we all thought when we first saw it: life as a golf caddy. In the midst of all this sensible thinking, I’m actually relieved to see the Centaur, a four-wheeled Segway that can rear up on it’s back tires for optimal chasing of small children and ducks. That idea is actually pretty fantastic. We need a demo model.

Update: Oops, the Centaur is still in demo mode, not production. Bummer.
