My parents either scoffed at the price or were unable to find the name brand version. I received a knock-off version for Christmas which, if I remember correctly, looked like a small dog sleeping in a basket. The dog was part of a lid which flipped open to reveal the screen and buttons. I remember being happy with it, but under some circumstances it played alarm sounds. I don't remember the cause, but one day it went off like a fire alarm and I wasn't allowed to bring it to school after that.
