Yes, I have a treadmill. My long-term hope is to treadmill 2x, strength train 2x (I just bought a balance ball), and ... something... 2x. One of my friends at work says Bosu kicks her ass, so it was something I was thinking about.
The knee problem is simple, but surprisingly restrictive... it will not bear weight while bent. No squats. No lunges. No biking. No jumping jacks (torque) or water exercises (same). It will take quite a pounding, as long as the weight is hitting it straight up and down.
And as long as I don't ask it to bear weight bent, I'm in no pain and can walk normally. Ask more out of it, and I limp; ask more than that and it's prone to give out without warning.

So what the knee wants, the knee gets.
