(If this link doesn't work for some reason, try brookstone.com, search
for lawn sweeper)

Brookstone doesn't sell even one item that's useful and reasonably
priced. Such a lawn rake would only be useful for a very small area,
like no more than 5,000 sqft, and for such small lawns I'm positive
that contraption couldn't out perform an ordinary leaf rake
