Actually impressed!
I thought this would be another gadget I abandoned after one night. Two weeks later I am still trying to beat my own score, and it is the best thing I've bought for a quiet evening at home.

Love this thing
Packed it for a long flight and got properly lost in a puzzle game. Usually I check the time about a hundred times lol
