I love people making little things like this and so one hates to throw rocks from the sidelines.
But I literally laughed out loud, HARD, at the price.

  unfortunately that's the cost of supporting small businesses, no one can really compete with competitors who benefit from scale pricing

    Oh cool, I haven't checked on it in quite a long time.
    I ended up getting them a Dato Duo, which we enjoy quite a bit. Got that for $229, price on it is way up now. Been eyeing the Dato Drum, but it's pretty steep at $500.
