these are actually kind of cool - they had a few in the computer lab of a science museum that i volunteered at. Image quality is actaully quite good (for what it is). The kids loved these things.

CyberZenn: Thanks for confirming my thoughts on this. My grandson is 13 and I figure he'll get kick out of it. (And if I stress the educational aspects of it, I should be able to slip another computer gadget past his parents.)

Grandchildren = the best revenge you'll ever have on your kids. :D

Thanks Dan...ordered one for my 6 yr. old grandson. I've been thinking about one of these after seeing them at a local store for $89.95 some time ago. I saw them again at a local computer show two weekends ago for $49.95. I think he will enjoy it...I know I will.
