I'm a sucker for statistics, charts, and graphs. I know the usefulness of the display may be overstated, but I still think it's cool. $200-cool, though? Not sure.

I bought this at Best Buy for the suggested price of $199.99. Owned for ~2 weeks, love it so far, but still a bit early to tell for sure. Setup is EXTREMELY easy, IF you have a wired port available on your pc (required). Overall so far, glad I got it, but probably could have gotten it for $20 less or so on the internet... ah well, impulsive buying is fun.
