WOW! This is simple cheap and cool. I made a quick movie with a GIF Animator and uploded it to my Newt in less than 30 min. This small pkg. will wow other PDA users. Its worth the small price. ($5) just to blow peoples minds!!! Simple to use, good price. Not very usefull but more fun than a trip to Disney..... 9 of 10 for this great Package.
