i remember seeing an ad for one of them on late night (or is that early morning) and thinking... damn it does stairs too.... can't keep them cripples down!!!

really cool technology. my grandmother is actually looking into getting a chair at her dr's request. if she got one, i wonder if i would get to play with it... (hehehe)

note that they do not even attempt to talk cost on that site, i am guessing even IF you somehow get insurance reimbursement you are probably reverse mortgaging the house and selling off all your worldly possessions to get one.

this from their faq

their faq wrote:Is reimbursement available through insurance?

Our Reimbursement Counselors have had some success to date and are happy to work with you.
