I thought about it at one point, but was not impressed with the folder I bought (Helios P8) as an only bike. It was great for short trips and to take on travel in a suitcase though.

Most of the time folding isn't an advantage for me and I can buy a lot more bike in a non-folder for the same money as a real high end bike like Bike Friday.

Don't get me wrong, folders are great, but they are a compromise like any bike and if folding isn't needed in a given application I don't see the point. Different strokes though.
