    Great!!!!!!!!! March 29, 2009
    By deb3275 of Medina, NY

    I bought this to use for my grandchildren, so they can remember growing up with Gramma, this is fun and very easy to use. I just love it !!!!!!!!!! It is small enough for my hands and doesn't make it hard for me to record while they are moving and playing all their sports games. Now when they come to my home, they can see the good times and will always remember the days with Gramma. I just love this product................
