Interestingly enough, the feature I thought most redundant and unnecessary, the NPC random tables on panel #1, are what made my wife (a DM also) go "Ooooooh!" So maybe they got it right after all.
 

Lots of comments about the lack of info, but I think they put the things on it that I find annoying to look up. Mine should arrive soon.
 


I picked mine up at the local FLGS about a week ago. I haven't had a chance to use it yet, so my review is on hold for now.

Having said that, I like the artwork, I laugh at the mis-spelling (leutral), and like the conditions being listed on the inside. I figure if there is more I need "at my fingertips", I will just use some notes or whatever. I keep my PHB on hand to reference erither way.

Initial thought, was the height. I was thinking it should have been taller, but perhaps this will not be an issue. I will report back once I have had the opportunity to put it to work. :)
 




Mine arrived last night just as I was going out the door to my PF game. From what I've seen so far I like both the artwork and the contents.
 

I use a laptop/tablet at the table so i have plenty of access to panel 1 style NPC generators already. I covered that panel with DMG traps and tricks tables, instead. Covered most of the far right panel with DMG social interactions table, object AC and HP, Noises/odors/air tables from DMG. Also stuck the "interacting with objects" and tracking tables in there (mid right panel).

I would say the base screen is 60% good, but you can easily customise it to include the other things you want. It's worth the $20 for the conditions tables and their superb little b&w sketches alone.
