Has Anybody Had Luck with the Electronic Cigarrette?

If so, how long did it take you to get use to it?
And whether you had luck with it or not, have you ever been reprimanded or kicked out of a non-smoking place/area for using it?

I've had one since Feb. that I periodically try to use. I'm tired of smelling like *** and getting dirty looks even when I am in a designated smoking area I also don't want to age and die prematurely.

Suggestion:

I have a cousin that has had great success the it . She took a long time to kick the habit but she did. Try drinking orange juice while using it , that is what she did.
