    Starting on Friday, August 15 you can pre-purchase the Gypsy at Michaels Arts & Crafts Stores for $299.99 in the US. The arrival date in the stores is sometime in mid September, I believe. Other wise they are not available in stores till October.

    I have the unit. I purchased from HSN I love it however it would be so helpful if you would provide a users manual. The product is simple however I am sure that there are more things that can be ulocked with a users manual. Even if one had to go on line to print it.
