It made Scoble cry...

It just plain annoyed me at first.  I made it all the way to 99%! 

I guess it's the last 1% that's the hardest.

A refresh let me download the app.

My first impression?  I like the vector graphics.  Reminds me of Qix or Tron.

I clicked on the Interactive Tours icon.

What happened to "background transfers"?  I lost control of the app as it was downloading.

After downloading a couple tours, my ears started bugging me due to the differences in recordings.  Volume leveler would be good

The verdict?

Get it. It's free.  Didn't make me cry but the amount of effort put into this app must have been enormous.  It's an incredible learning tool.

I knew I should have bought the digital telescope I saw at that garage sale last week...
