Dean Kamen said " ..although technology moves very quickly, people's mindset changes very slowly." I think I both agree and disagree with this statement because there are not all of the technologies can be accepted by all people. Some people can adjust into their life easily, but other people is think that it is not easy to use or to understand with new technology. I think the invention besides the Segway is E-Bike. In this moment I have seen people used E-Bike more than Segway in Thailand. Segway is not popular and it is new for us. Another inventions that accepted very quickly is mobile phone. For the example in the picture "iPhone and Blackberry" this two mobile phone are famous in Thailand especially in teenagers because iPhone and Blackberry have a lot of function to used. Instance of chatting program, game, and internet function. From the reasons aboved make mobile phone can attracted to the people very fast.

OK, so do you think older people have a stronger mindset than younger people? I probably would agree with this. Even though I have programmed computers for many years, I now find myself getting very confused about new technologies. For example, I always have hated mobile phones. Then, last week, I bought a smart phone, and I can see why everyone likes them. That is an example of a strong mindset -- not wanting to try something new because it is "new"!
