After all, this is not one meant for adults, and will kids be able to appreciate something so expensive? 2GB of miserly storage space is outrageous in this day and age, especially with the kind of money you fork out for it, but the whole idea is this – just how many songs does a small kid actually bother listening to? They would most probably prefer a short playlist that repeats itself many times over. What makes the Hörbert so expensive? This is basically a hand-crafted, wooden device, and I assume the 11 multi-colored buttons also costs some to integrate. Definitely not worth the three Benjamins in my books, but others might see it as a status symbol for Junior.
