I like how he took it apart and it didn't immediately work right after he put it back together. Reminds me of a lot of electronics that I fooled with when I was younger. He at least had the internet to find a solution.

I was just commenting the other day on the craze with the cabbage patch kids and the elmo doll. I agree, ingenious marketing.

It might look cheap, but it does not feel that way. I got to play with one today for about 1/2 an hour and it is pretty slick.

Not sure why the "cheap" comment was made. The thing looks pretty good, considering what is mounted inside that case, imagine what this would have looked like if it were made 30 years ago?
