Need to think about getting the Parallax USB to Serial Adapter and Cable too. Could not be sure, but it did not clearly say whether it was included or not. Most folks don't have a serial connection anymore...
Also, if the box is a clue - these are early - before the recommended age was raised following the expiration of the Child Safety Approval - At the end of the Scribbler life - it was not renewed if I recall correctly. Great price though! If I didn't have a gaggle, I'd sure get one or two!
Good catch. The listing also says wheel encoders and hacker port, so there is much confusion afoot. An unscrupulous buyer would nab it for $30 then later demand a partial refund when "disappointed" at the errors.

Deff an uninformed seller, taking snippets from old S2 and S3 Scribbler and S2 auctions.
I think Parallax should do an auction for the first shipped S3, with monies to go to charity. Of course signed by all developers, but that would mean it would have to go back to Colorado for Ben to sign.

The pictured one looks in good condition.

Why, when you can get a new one at 5 times the price?
Those IPRE dongles used to show up regularly on Ebay, less so now. Camera onboard.

EDIT: Opps!
I was waiting to see who else caught that.
I am checking regularly for the "New Product" announcement! #seeinggreen
