Excellent Stock Tracker!
By KristiVerified Reviewer from Oklahoma City, OK on 7/26/2008

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Before I owned the wireless stock tracker, I alway had to change the TV to the financial channels and wait for my stock to show up to check the price. Now I can just glance at my stock tracker and it saves me a lot of time. I like to go camping and couldn't keep track of my portfolio while I was gone, but now I can. The stock tracker has worked everywhere I have taken it and it's size makes it simple to pack. I was impressed with the quality of it's design and it's ease of use. You don't even need to know how to use a computer to use this device. It also makes a great coversation piece because I keep it right on my coffee table and everyone that comes over has never seen anything like it, and everyone thinks it's pretty neat! The stock tracker would also make an excellent gift for the man in your life that already has everything. Overall I would rate this an excellent buy, I have not found anything that I do not like about it.

Bottom Line:

Since 15 minute delay is built in, it's greatest usage is as a luxury toy for placement on a desk where it can be enjoyed by visitors. They tend to think it's "neat".

Excellent as a gift to someone in business. It's the type of present that one would not get for oneself, but would be prized as a present.

This is a nice device that is fun to use. Because it's in realtime, it gives data before the 20 min delay on most internet sites. For the average investor who has internet access, though, 20 mins isn't a huge deal so it's value is more in it's novelty than in the information it provides.
