Joseph, ask and you shall recieve. I actually got the first of the reviews that I was expecting today. Here it is:

I have been researching folding bikes on the Internet for quite a while.
There are lots of choices, but am really glad I discovered the Origami
Bicycle Co. I am very happy with my purchase of the Cricket. I could not
find a better value anywhere on the net with similar features. The Cricket
has front-fork shock absorbers, a shock absorber on the articulating frame,
front and rear disc brakes, fenders, and a carry rack - all standard. WOW!
Small Bike - Big Value. The beautiful fit and finish exceeded my
expectations for a bike under $400. The ride is smooth and comfortable for a
folding bike, fun to ride, and now I can take it with me everywhere I go. I
like the idea of popping it out of the trunk or RV and going for a ride at
any time. I had some trouble with the computer I purchased with my bike,
but Paul was quick to resolve the problem and make things right. Thanks for
the great product and service. I will highly recommend an Origami Bicycle
to my friends.

Thanks for everything,
