From the original discussion at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4860729 there were two questions I want to address:

1. Is this a replacement for exercising or taking a break from work?

No! It is a replacement for me sitting on my ass when I do work. Exercise and taking breaks are good things and I should do more of both!

2. Surely you can't type reliably?

My wife took this video on my phone, to show that I can type and mouse reasonably comfortably. (No, I don't usually have five Emacs buffers filled with Hipster Ipsum text; this is a stand-in for actual code.)

Finally, note that there is a video of me transforming the desk to sitting here, so you see how easy it is: http://peterarm.tumblr.com/post/37062068688/transform-to-sit...
