I watched the video of the device that allows mobility in an upright position. Some members may already be aware of this but its the first time i have seen it. It does look pretty useful 
The TEK Robotic Mobilization Device is a machine developed to replace the wheelchair. In this demonstration video, we see a man with a severe injury to his spinal cord able to move about in ways that a wheelchair would make very difficult.
I would imagine the cost would be hefty but would be useful to have in addition to a chair and i doubt it would be suitable for some individuals with high cervical injuries.
