I'm on an electric unicycle forum of all things, and the Russians have figured out how to hack the Ninebot Mini (the Segway I have) both by replacing the CPU with their own, or by flashing their own tweaked code to it. The purpose; to increase the speed from 10 MPH to 13 MPH.

A lot of effort has gone into those 3 MPH for a relatively low volume product. The funny thing is they haven't released the software hack because they can't figure out how to monetize it in a way that can't be hacked and distributed outside of their control.
