P3D Re: Re: 3Discover Cassettes

[bsharp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I purchased a 3Discover Viewer and Cassette last summer.  I later
purchased extra cassettes and found that one was defective and would not 
advance and return properly.  The cassette would advance but it would
not automatically stop where it was supposed to.  Wrebbit was very good
and replaced the cassette along with two additional cassettes for my
trouble.

I have only viewed these cassettes a few times.  I viewed the one
replacement cassette the other night to find that it now is doing the same
thing as the original defective cassette.  There is something faulty in
the cassette that the viewer cannot read where the cassette should stop.
As Wrebbit has already replaced one defective cassette I don't feel that
they will replace this one.

I have had only five cassettes and found two to be defective.  Although I
like the 3Discover System, and the cassettes that are available, it does
not appear that the cassettes will last very long.  I don't feel that I
want to spend money on more cassettes if they have a short lifetime. 
We will not be viewing these cassettes twenty years from now as we do
with the trusty old viewmaster reels.  	I think Wrebbit should
introduce a manual advance system which would ensure more
reliability and longevity.  I would be interested to
hear if other people have experienced the same 
problem.
