This is an awesome deal! I bought six, even though I can't afford them (it didn't seem to matter that I used the same address twice - just different email accounts/credit cards).
The shopping site is also hilarious - if a little off-color. I was not surprised to learn that it's not really a site for children, but the 'kid products' off-shoot of a larger conglomeration. My account information "secretly determines if I get into heaven"? Dang, and all that time I wasted being good!
The next step is to figure out where to buy AC adapters for the laptops. It will be hard to keep kids overseas stocked with batteries.
