3.0 out of 5 stars Quick and right, but cracked, July 11, 2009

By	F. Gomez (pittsburgh, PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The product I was expecting arrived quickly in the mail. It worked fine, but I was disappointed to find that the case and the paper cover were both cracked and ripped. It would've been good to know about these defects beforehand.
