Both of these are from Denmark and for the past 14 years of working as a software developer there, I have always had adjustable desks. They are simply everywhere and it was only recently that I realized that this is not the situation world wide (I currently live in Spain and I had to order mine from Denmark!).
This makes me wonder if there is an untapped market in, say, the US for these? I could never go back and I think most people who have tried wouldn't. It's not only the matter of standing up -- just making small adjustments during the day when you change position a bit feels really good and I am sure is good for the back etc.
I'm Danish and have often wondered about this too - there are so many options here for electric height adjustable desks and everyone has them, from banks to car dealerships. I would never work somewhere that didn't offer this, I even got one for my home office: http://imgur.com/A1eS2. Set me back about a thousand dollars, about what I spent on a cell phone every other few months.
Mine is from http://www.conset.dk (Danish) by the way. Huge selection of frames (one, two or more columns) and you specify your tabletop yourself (size, position and dimensions of the cut-in, bezel, finishing (oak/maple/cherry)), all online.
