I would be comfortable at a $600 USD price point.

The major issue for me is that the GeekDesk succeeds ONLY in the adjustable requirement. I want to be able to have my monitor and keyboards at different heights, and a secondary shelf was important (though not strictly necessary). When I consider paying nearly $1000 USD for a starter kit (GeekDesk large frame), then spec'ing out nearly $400 USD for additional monitor stands and a keyboard tray, it hardly seems worth it.

I agree that it's a market where a motivated individual should be able to make a killing with a well-thought-out kickstarter proj.

Ah, good point. I should have added that I also got one of these: http://www.amazon.co.uk/MDM11S-Single-Monitor-Bracket-Pull-O... which takes care of my screen height [Edit: pic] http://dl.dropbox.com/u/44212/IMG_20120109_180019.jpg
