Hello All:

I am planning to go to Fall Comdex and was wondering about 3 things...

1) Are the any places in Las Vegas which rent electric 3 wheelers which
   should be used/avoided...

2) Since I go to a lot of conventions lately (Computer/Electronic/SF/Anime)
   and have been considering the purchase of one, are there any recommendation 
   on models to seek/avoid?

3) How much will it cost to Rent/Buy New/Used?

A little background:

I am a 24 yr old with Cerebral Palsy.  It hinders my ability to
walk.  I am ambulatory but use a cane to walk around with.  The
only 3 wheelers I have tried have been the two models of the Amigo
and I have had positive experiences with both the quality of
equipment and the people.  I am very independant but want to
concentrate on the cons I go to rather than on my legs.

BTW: I would like to build up my cariovascular (sp?) system.  What have
     your experiences been with the mainstream fitness centers?

BTW2: Any alumni out there from C.Morley Sellery School of Gardena, CA?

Thanks in advance,

-- Michael
