It's a cool idea but it doesn't look comfortable to play on at all.  Even if you sat on the floor how would you see the monitor... looks like kneeling is the only option... or maybe sitting on the edge of a chair and leaning over.  Also, the botton layout looks a little wonky.  It is sleek though and if it's the first iteration in a series I'm sure the same concept could be improved upon...

I've considered building one of those, actually.  If you sat on the floor, between the table and the couch, leaning back against the base of the couch, it would work just fine.  The thing that stopped me was the need for an LCD and LCD viewing angles.

Yah I posted about these a while ago. Definitely more "wife friendly" than traditional cabs. And fairly easy to build. Those legs are available here although not cheap: http://tinyurl.com/2y58e4
