You might want to run a patent search to make sure your idea isnt already patented ($500). To have an attorney get a patent for you, its probably going to cost in the neighborhood of $10,000. Upkeep for the next 17(?) years isnt that much.

I had an idea, took it to a patent attorney, and he told me "look this is a cool idea, but dont bother with the patent because if its successful the big companies can change one itsy bitsy little thing and rip you off easily." Cool attorney.
