Does anyone have experience with Handydup? (the hand operated duplimate that is 1/10th the cost...)

In Orlando, I noticed some decks had the "Handydup" markings, so I assume it must work fairly well for ACBL to be using it for (a bit of) mass-production. I don't have any first-hand experience with it though.
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!

that may not mean that they were duplicated with handydup. The duplimate website says handydup cards can be used with regular duplimate.

I was sent a sample by the manufacturer earlier this year. After a bit of a hassle with the software I got the unit working. It's Ok. Requires a fair amount of hand eye coordination to deal a hand quickly. I certainly wouldnt buy one on behalf of a club as a substitute for a dealing machine. Bite the bullet and buy a Duplimate. If you just want to deal a set of hands for the occasional home game, then a HandyDup is I suppose better than dealing by hand from a hand record.
