Anyone know where I can pick up an 'Isabella camping chair with headrest' here in the States?  Isabella is a UK company but from all appearances this chair might be the most comfortable one anywhere around.  Sometimes I like to rest my head when I'm sitting, and I like to sit upright (not at a slant), hence why this chair is so appealing.  Ideas, anyone?  Or similar alternatives I should consider?  Thanks,

Well, I had to give up on my quest to obtain the Isabella chair since the company only ships within the UK and adjacent countries.  So I kept on searching and eventually found a reasonably suitable facsimile of the Isabella but available in the States.  It's the Ultimate Recliner chair by Alps Mountaineering.  Priced around $70 at a few vendors, it offered what I've been looking for:  high back w/ headrest, ultra stability, breathability, worthy armrests, and several backrest positions (from nearly straight up all the way down to star-gazing mode. Did my usual custom add-ons, in this case:  1) a pair of velcro straps to hold armrests in place once position is set;  2) a cup holder stolen off my previous Cabelas chair;  3) slight mod w/ gorilla tape to lessen the built-in lumbar support;  4) long wraparound webbing strap w/ quicklock clip when folded up for travel;  5) velcro straps to manually adjust headrest height.  I likey.  This is just too cush, guess I've moved into glamping territory now.
