well, don't be too jealous - especially of the IBOT. yes, it's
cool and leading edge but it is very large and clumsy in tight places like
hallways, and it is not certified for use as a driving chair - in a van.
all the whiz-bang electronics are very cool, but i'm sure repairs are
hell. a 500$ pride jet from ebay and a ramp van sure turned my mobile-life
around. just how mobile are you john? any triceps, any
transfers?

I have seen an IBOT. I have read about them. I have not met an insurance
company that will buy one. Medicare and medicaid insist that I will walk
before they pay for one. I find that as I get older I become lower on the list
of folks thats going to get the new cool handy devices that make life more
than minimally barable. I'm jealous of y'all with per-mobiles and vans that
you can drive. lol Sometimes I feel like I'm starving and sitting watching
everyone else eat steak. The IBOT is like looking at porn. It just frustrates
me. lol

My friend's dad a 6 foot lift for him powered by a 25$ electric
chain fall from ACE Hdw. Worked pretty well. Another way
might be to try the IBOT. --> IBOT The Dream Machine

Has anyone ever put an
elevator in their home? I was wondering the costs, if it’s $5k or closer
to $20k
Or how about a lift for the
stairs? Do they have lifts for stairs that make u-turns? Can you use a big
electric chair on one?
