Bewildering Complexity and Terrible Interface
I was excited to buy these for my daughter, but thought I should check them out before putting them under the Xmas tree. Many glaring design flaws and the User Interface couldn't be much worse. Letters printed BELOW the buttons so they are covered while you are inputting text, of the old "press 3 times to get the letter C" style input. A befuddlingly complex interface requiring multiple arcane button pushes to prepare the units for sending and receiving text. For example, after setting up and inputting data, you hit SEND. Does it send? No. The device cryptically asks you, "P/I?" To this, you respond by finding the chicklet sized ICQ CALL key and pressing it. If the receiver has gone through the process of setting up their unit to receive, and if they're line of sight, and aimed at each other, the input text will send.I think it would be just about as easy to teach my kid Morse Code and buy her a telegraph key, as to try to decipher this thing.Does it work? Yes. Should your kid be a computer programmer to get it to work? Yes again. Can you run the device without the manual? Not till you've got it memorized.

Terrible
I was shocked at how hard this toy was to comprehend. We are tech people and I couldn't understand how to send a message. It's insane to think that someone thought children would follow these instructions. This toy literally went In the trash.

For kids?? Really???
I have a degree in computer science and have worked in IT for nearly 20 years and could not figure out how to send a message on this thing. Not quite sure how my 7 year old is supposed to. Seriously, the instructions to send a message between the two things is hilarious.

Great pre-phone Gift!
Our daughter received these for her birthday and LOVES them! Keep in mind that these are not on a network and are used in close range with each other. When she has a friend over they have a lot of laughs using these in the car and around the house to send each other "secret" messages.
