lifesaver for us
By T. Holmes
I bought this for my daughter who constantly wants to play with her father's palm pilot. She loved it and our problems were solved. Now she can go and get her palm and play while someone else is using the "boring" palm. It does not have a color screen, so if that is important this is not the item for you. The only draw back is that it does not have a volume control. You can turn the volume off but it makes it impossible to play some of the games. Excellent learning tool.

not bad for $20
By Mom of 3
I bought this for my 4 year old, after his 7 year old brother got a Game Boy, and he wanted a "Game Boy", too. It is silver, has a stylus, and has some nice educational games. You can control it using the stylus, or by touching the screen with your finger. It's not too complicated, and is far less expensive than the Leapster or VSmile handheld, the other options for a 4 year old. I also like the fact the there are no extra cartridges to buy - and lose! The graphics aren't very fancy, and the picture is black and white, but my son doesn't mind in the least. I'm sure in about a year, he will get his own Game Boy, but until then, this will work nicely, and it doesn't matter if it gets dropped on the floor again and again.

broke the first day
By R. Chang
The grandparents bought this for my 5-year old for Christmas. He liked it, but the touchscreen broke the first day. Not exactly reliable.
