If you are ok with being $129 out of pocket if the thing breaks, this is a great deal. The DR800 screen is very good and the software is "good enough". I assume the 3G no longer works, since iRex isn't paying the bills. It never did include web browsing so far as I know.

You can navigate with the bar. The touch screen is pen only and only Wacom pens work.
