Pros: - Very ergonomic (all letters/symbols easily accessible)
- Lots of pretty options (not so useful in day to day, thought)
- Also, quite stylish
Cons: - Silly margins option, makes you lose a lot of ribbon and, even, cut it off yourself with a scissor...
- Stupid battery choice 6 x AAA instead of less cheaper bigger AA or A batteries

Summary: Concerning the margins : the device FORCES you to lost at least 25mm of "margins"... You often ends up with more margins than actual text. If you reduce margins in the options, there is always a side of 25mm, that you have to cut off yourself with some scissor. That is really a turn off for me, to lose so much consumables AND having to do some extra work.
Just for that reason, if I had known it beforehand, I wouldn't have bought this device... That's a pity because it is nearly perfect in every other regards, but this stupid mistake in design is just unacceptable for me.
