Cons No tapes, DVDs, or cables required; small size; good battery life; adequate video/sound...

Recommended it? Yes

I teach 7th Grade in a Junior High School. And seeing 210 12 and 13 year old kids every day, I get a pretty good feel for what they like, what they don't like, and how they take care of things.
