The chair is great, but only for the most severe cases - it's just not cost effective for most people.
vonskippy - you're right, there's a lot of inertia as a result of bad habits becoming deeply ingrained over many years. Few people pay any attention to their posture unless they're determined to correct it, either for appearance-sake (avoiding a hunch), or because an episode of back or neck pain has made their life a misery. But for employers, early intervention makes sense - they don't want to wait until you've developed such strong motivation because it means you'll be underperforming or taking sick leave because of your pain.
I've developed a much simpler, lower-cost and less "zappy" solution to help people who are committed to correcting their posture: award-winning software that monitors your posture with a webcam and reminds you whenever you sit in a damaging posture for an extended period.
