I just own the 500 and the 150 ones. I love my Xyrons but I'm sure the newest ones are cooler since you can do so much more with them.

What is it?

it's a machine that in my case since I own the old one it makes everything "stikcer" so any kind of paper, cardstock or anything that fit through it will stick the glue on the back, the newer ones on the other hand make stickers, laminate and make magnets.

Oh that looks awesome! It's like a computerized Sizzix. You're going to have to tell us how she likes it. Are there a lot of books available for it?

Ooh, the books for it are only $40! Even complete alphabets. Uh oh, Sizzix better watch out!

well, I guess they showed a demonstration for it on HSN which made my sister want it *lol* She missed out on that sale though because she could have got it for 150 bucks. Anyway, she said it looked really cool. She did buy some books..I am not sure how many. It looks like there are quite a few books out already. I will let you know how she likes it. I may have to borrow it from her sometime *lol*

One thing that my sister said she really like was that instead of punching out letter by letter like with the sizzix machine...it will cut out a whole word for you at once. And it can make them in 3 different sizes.

If your sister has good luck with that I may be selling my Sizzix. I never thought i'd say that. With the baby coming I lost my craft room so now I have no where to keep all these dies.

Do you just put a full sheet of cardstock or whatever into it to punch out the letters or whatever? I'm seriously going to look into this thing more and start saving up for one.

I want one!!! LOL!! I've been checking them out, though. But I can't decide which one I want. (I'm totally indecisive.)

I'm not exactly sure. It sounds awesome. I kind of wish I had waited on all the sizzix stuff I bought recently now :lol I have bought a ton of dies and have 2 sets of letters and a bunch of sizzlets too.

Yeah, I know. I was tallying up how much I've spent on Sizzix stuff since I bought it last night :nutts If I could sell it all for half what I paid for it on ebay, I could buy the Xyron thing plus like 4 books.
