First, the instructions, while impressive in several foreign languages, are utterly useless. The device includes a button and a slide-switch, for which there is no mention in said instructions of their purpose. Furthermore, the device is not "Plug and Play" which, in short, means it is hit or miss with compatibility to your computer system.
The first time I inserted the software, provided on a mini CD, I had to immediately visit the Datel website in order to get an upgraded version (the product they ship is already outdated). While upgrading, my system crashed, and I nearly lost my entire IBM ThinkPad T22 Lap Top, as it would not reboot until I removed and replaced the battery. Upon further review, I realized that the product was developed by the British, which left me pondering, "What was the last succesful software product invented in the UK?" - I couldn't think of any....
Anyway, after rebooting, I could not get the device to synchronize with the lap top which meant my son was not going to obtain any new codes. And after four hours of screwing around with this British-made piece of crap, we put it back in the box so we could return it, then went outside and had some real fun playing wiffle ball.
