This is probably a long shot, but has anyone seen a standing desk or treadmill desk here?

Ideally I'm looking for something like this: http://www.trekdesk.com/

Any thoughts on where I could get one built? I'm already assuming this is my only option.
 
I haven't seen one here. I used a standing desk for a couple of years in my office in the US and I loved it. I think it might be hard to do the detail work like writing or typing while on a treadmill, though.

A while ago I heard an interview with Susan Orlean, she wrote The Orchid Thief. She said that she does all her writing on a treadmill desk.

I just did a google search. You can order through a company called Traetelo and get the lifespan treadmill desk. It runs about $1800 USD. Shipping to BA is about three grand and handling charges are a couple of grand more and the total is $7800 USD. That's too pricey for me but I would really like one. I just read an interview with Russell Blake, the novelist and he said he uses one and lost 25 lbs. in one year.
 
I think I would a) fall onto the thing the first time I have to do other two things at once B) work a lot less due to the physical exercise involved. I might not lose weight, but I'd improve my health anyway!
