I did went through some internal struggle before biting the bullet. Yes, $300 is hella exp for a piece of plastic! But it just bugs me if I don't get it so much that I think I would still want a try on it eventually. ok, look at the big picture, forget the $300... it wouldn't make me a poor man either, nor would it make me rich if i had saved it. Anyway, hope I can give some useful reviews/opinion for those who are keen.
