The handle is surprisingly handy. No that I carry it around much, but when I have taken it ouf of a bag to be placed near a system - its been very nice!
The one annoying thing about the unit it the beeps it makes when it is turned on. I beleive there is a button on the back for it, but I haven't taken the time to look into it. I honestly dont know why the chose the beep tone that they did. But like you said, the price is right so I really have no complaints!
