      Comments about Oregon Scientific The Special Edition SmartGlobe v3:

      Globe was the avorite Christmas gift, my 6 yeaar old granddaughter loves the games and now enjoys finding places she heres about on TV. Two friends that teach want it for the classroom and another wants it in her office. My ONLY suggestion would be to make it slightly larger for us old folks.(print is small) , but in real life I couldn't be happier it's worth twice the cost !!!!

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

            My family has already gotten much enjoyment out of the Smartglobe V3. You can change the educational levels to suit any member of your family. You can also do free updates for the first year and then for a nominal fee you can continue to receive updates to ensure you have current information.
