I know cerebro has been discussed before but I would like this to be a short thread that discusses the ups and downs of cerebro as well as whether you think it is worth the price. Fire away!

Cerebro is the perfect tool for each and every effect described in the ad copy. Plus being a new device conceptually means that it's full potential hasn't been reached yet and it's only through toying with it that new ideas and effect will be born until in 50 years we have the "Easy to Master Cerebro Miricles"DVDs and the "20 Cerebro Stunners" ebook. So far as the price, it's electronic and with mentalism that tends to equal a pretty hefty one. I guess the reason for this is two fold, on one hand you need to keep things like this out of the grubby mits of the curious armchair mentalist, and on the other it costs a fair bit to manufacture as it is a custom built machine.
As with anything, you need to think about what it is you want to do on stage and then ask whether or not Cerebro is the tool you need to achieve your effect. Curt.
