Boy I can't tell you how many times I've been out in the boonies and really, really wanted an espresso (okay it's been every time, so like....six). Well my wait might be almost over!!
Handpresso looks like a bicycle pump (how Franch) attached to one of those plastic bubbles that you get from the bubble gum/cheap toy vending machines. It uses an espresso pod. You pump it up to 16 bars (about the right pressure), fill it with hot water, pop in the pod, hit the button, et voila. It's 99 euros (143.5302 U.S. dollars) plus whatever they want to jack you for, for shipping and handling. So say two hundred bucks? Would you pay that? I sent an email to them and if I get an availability notice that it can be bought around these parts I'll let you know.

UPDATE - This "caffeine crack pipe/bong" can be yours for a total of 127 euros (185.4708 U.S. dollars) including shipping. It's not available in the US... yet.

It looks a lot like a bong. I suppose it is a kind of 'caffeine bong'.

This is about the coffee equivalent of saying, "I can't tell you how many times my wife has been on business travel and I wanted to sleep with a toothless, one-legged whore."
