Disadvantages: No manual, reigon 2 only see op

...it are: i. No one would be daft enough to buy it. ii. My Mum would string me up because it is hers. iii. I would have to spend a small fortune replacing the videos that we have. On to the serious nature of this opinion, and I have no intention of boring everyone (both of you) who read this op with the specifications.
