Okay, I am a geek I admit it. I saw this at the local Brookstone store and had to have it. I saw the box cover showing a guy using a computer with this under the table. Burning calories and using the computer? What could be better? I tried out their floor model with one of their desks there. It actually worked pretty well, I decided to take it home and try.Yes, I am able to use the computer and exercise at the same time. I use it in the morning before going to work. I can browse the web for about 30 minutes while I use the mini-bike. It really does work pretty well.
The design is good on this thing. It will tell you how fast your going as well as how many calories it thinks you have burned. The screen is setup so you can easily look down and see it. Its actually quite heavy, which is good, you don't tend to push it around. Everything seems to be constructed well, except for the straps that hold your feet onto the pedals. They are made out a flexable plastic. The floor model at Brookstone was already broke. If you are careful I am sure they are fine. I am sure someone tried to jam a pair of workboots or such into the floor model and destroyed it in the process.
