With the news of steep discounts on the Droid developer kit, I located fours
sets at a CompUSA in Austin, and bought them all at $29.99 each. Will
probably give two away as gifts and use the other two this week, which
happens to be spring break for my boys (8 and 5). I also got a Darkside at
TRU using ninty dollars worth of TRU coupons, plus $10 cash. Wel, we hope to
have some fun this spring break even if the microscout isn't that great.
Unfortunately we do not have a scout unit.
