I'm wondering whether to order one as I have incredibly weak hands - but I'd probably drop the thing or it would be too heavy for me to use in the first place!

Re: Powerball

despatch email received - sent 25.05.05 - expect 3 to 5 days before delivery - and confirming the delivery address as my workplace, which is really handy.

So if it gets here Friday I will be letting you know how I get on over the weekend
