      Amazing little device

      I just got my thumby. I’ve had it for almost five days now and it’s so great.
      Some people say that it’s hard to play on it but it was no problem for me.
      The performance is really great, the games run surprisingly good. The speaker is great too.
      The battery life is really great too i got something over 2.2hours.
      Only thing which is not even a problem make sure you get a micro usb cable that transfers data
      I tried about 10 cables, nothing worked so I got a older one which was thicker and worked. Overall a really great made product I LOVE IT.
      Thank you Kenneth Burns.

      SO CUTE

      I love my thumby!
      I'm 49 years old and never had a GameBoy - now I have my cutesy Thumby and can play one of my favorite games ever again! Minesweeper!
      I can't get enough!
      So I just bought a second one for one of my best friends, who's my age and also never had a GameBoy.
      We know it's not a GameBoy - it's better!
      Thanks!
