Thanks for the positive vibes. As someone directly involved with the project I can assure you we worked very hard to make it boring, insipid and a waste of time. We see this every time we put the device in the hands of children who instantly fall asleep or complain about how it's "missing the point" and a "total fail". Seriously, the world is a diverse place and I understand this perhaps doesn't float your boat, but you're wrong in every assertion you make. Kids love it. Kids love writing Python (among other languages) for it. Kids see how this is but a first step to bigger things. If but 1% of the million kids who'll get their hands on the device create something amazing then it's been worth it (despite vacuous posturing by nay-sayers). You're welcome! :-)
