Wonderful stress reliever, fun toy, group activity     Posted 17 March 2007 I found this at the Sharper Image while in a very bad mood after a horrible two days. (Don't ask.) Ten minutes of playing with it really helped the stress to melt away. I bought two immediately, one for at home and one for at work. I showed it to my brothers and ended up picking up another three for them. Picked up another for my granddaughter. We all love it and can't get enough of it! It makes us smile and laugh out loud, not to mention marveling at the technology behind it. For me the main value besides the fun is the soothing music, the light show, and the stress release / relief. And playing with it together as a group or family, several people moving the pawns around and enjoying the music and the show. This is a fantastic product and I can't wait to see version 2.0!
Cronenbergesque     Posted 16 February 2007 Reminds me of the bio-game-pods in the movie, ExistenZ, with Jennifer Jason Leigh. Even now, I stroke it lovingly when it turns on and I find myself reaching for the umbilical to plug into the bio-port at the base of my spine...
OK, well, coming back to reality, this thing is great, albeit a little repetitive. Too bad they don't have a compositional kit for it so you can compose and trade your own multi-track scores. This would make an insanely great cult community. A little MIDI interface would be all that it would take. Maybe someone will hack it. I'm dying to take mine apart.
Even as it is (with a single coposition), it certainly lives up to a lot of use in its own right. There are so many combinations of pieces and positions for the variations of the internal composition that I still haven't tired of it after a couple of weeks of regular use. I saw it at a friend's house some weeks ago and had to get one. We all liked it so much, I had to give it to my daughter but I bought two more for my wife and myself. I use it as my alarm clock now and take it to work with me every day.
FUN, UNIQUE, GREAT ALARM FEATURE     Posted 02 February 2007 I got this for my son for Christmas and it is a big hit. Very easy to set up and everyone from young to old enjoys playing with it. Also, has an alarm that actually wakes up my son!
Using it for Therapy     Posted 02 February 2007 Order this product for my impaired 9 year old grandson. His teacher and occupational therapist use it to teach eye-hand coordination. (Actually I think they like to play with it also)
Very Entertaining     Posted 20 January 2007 I've got to admit it, though I though this looked a bit weird when I first saw it in a picture, I was curious enough to try it out at Sharper Image. After spending 20 mins playing with it in the store I decided to buy it as a gift. After 'testing' it at home with friends, evereyone was so impressed I'm considering keeping it and buying another one for the gift. In fact, one of the first things I did when I woke up this morning was to 'test' it again for another 20 or so mins!!!
I know it is supposed to be some kind of toy, but it did have us wishing that there was an audio out so you could play your own mixes through a stereo for more volume, so you could mix your own background music
I can't speak for kids, but I know this would be a great hit at a party or get-together. Everyone seeing it for the first time would be fascinated.
