After he has had it and used it for a while (assuming that he shares it with me), I will come back to this thread and relay his experience anecdotally for others interested in a 9 year old's perspective.

Thanks for sharing the results! I hope he enjoys it as much as I enjoy mine! Looking forward to hearing more!
