Overall Impressions from Around the Web:
Mixed reviews so far which is surprising considering this was put together my MPR. They seem to be working out a few glitches so this may be worth checking out a little later down the road. However, if you are feeling adventurous, some users do report that they are having no problems and find the app excellent.
