Never heard of it.  Any links that can give us non-knowing people an idea of what it does?
I think it's AirStepper.com.  It looks like it works like a step machine, but it's a lot smaller.  There is, of course, a video that comes along with it for the cardio and strength training.

I'm more curious as to whether or not it's a piece of crap.  :-)

I think the product you are speaking of is located at www.theairclimber.com.  I saw the infomercial on a sleepless night a few days ago.  I was interested because I need something low-impact due to knees.  I am not too encouraged though after reading reviews of the product at informercialratings.com/product/air_climber_r eviews.  Let me know if anyone out there has further information.

I just got it and I love it!  The workouts are fun and it's fairly small, which is good because I have a small house and don't have room for big fancy equipment (or the budget for it either)!  Mine came with about 7 or 8 different workouts, a computer for counting steps and an armband with handles...it's great!  and was only $60! 
How do you keep your balance on that thing?  There are no grab bars or safety rails.  I know I'd fall off.

i am pretty clumsy and after a few minutes you get used to it and balance fine.  it is not crap, it is heavy duty plastic like so it is easy to move from room to room and up stairs.  it is a Great work out. my legs feel stronger and toned and i am sweating and my heart rate is fast and i am used to working out every day.  i think it is def worth the money. a problem i heard was that the air bellows were not inflating when it came...i thought mine didnt too. until i read on a paper it came with that when u hit the button ur suppposed to very GENTLY pull up a tiny bit to help it inflate.  and it is not a lot. u here a quick bit of air go in. i thought they would inflate more. but once u get on it as one goes down the other gets a lot higher ( like in the commercial for it) so i think maybe others were confused like me and didnt realise that. i do it for 45 mins a day and after only 15 i am panting. it is a great work out if you do it with the videos because she shows u great moves and steps to do. without the video u can work out your legs but with you get a great full body work out. and the arm bands, omg my arms have never been so strong. love it, def. try it. do NOT listen to the bad reviews, i am SO happy i got it. unless you are throwing it around i dont see how people are breaking this :)
