If I own a store, this is a no brainer.

Which would you rather dedicate your space for , Mr. store owner? Automobile parking which costs you floor space by taking up so much square footage that could be used to display your goods? Or a "mini" parking lot that is inside and part of the building, just for Segway vehicles? Even if I had to pay an attendant, I'd rather the use the space from the auto parking lot for making me money. Would people start using the Segways overnight? Very unlikely. Would it be beneficial to me if they did?. Yes, yes, yes! So as a store owner, I would make changes that would encourage people to drive them to my store.

Trust me, some company will create some special security system the second there are enough numbers to make that company money. Whether the system is developed for the user or the retailer makes little difference, if the demand is there, someone will tap it.
