The shelves are pretty cool, but some of the other pieces on the site are sketchy. Especially the coffee tables -- the table surface snaps on with a tiny twist. Looks like it could easily pop back off with just a bump.

The shelves rock, though.

I think I'll wait for the Nano version

@Stephan Lawson - I hope you're being facetious. Small-scale backyard and rooftop farming, if adopted broadly, could be a valuable strategy for dealing with global warming by reducing food-miles. At the very least, it's a fantastic way to get fresh eggs at a great price. I'd love to have squash, potatoes, and even chickens in my back yard, but I'm pretty sure the DC rats would tear them apart. I don't even let me dog go out back!

One brief comment on the video: the guy who says "most people move to the city to get away from farm animals" is WAY off. People move to cities for access to jobs, education, and other resources, not because they want to get away from chickens.

And just to add to the list of places that have chickens: Seattle. My next door neighbors in North Seattle had chickens, and I lived in a house with some girls who wanted to get chickens and a goat, but it never quite happened.

Full Disclosure: I grew up in Missoula (don't know anyone in the video, though).
