I was a late adopter, but I'm finding having Lilliputian gadgets around on which I can make music is a huge boon to my general happiness. But huge has its own appeal - even if for no other reason than the tongue in cheek.

Their fanbase is made up almost exclusively of homeschooled tweens who are prohibited from watching the Disney Channel and who are therefore not sucked into the Hannah Montanna vortex. Also there's at least a 50/50 chance someone's gonna take an offering if you go to one of their shows. But from my seat, they're almost impossible not to like. They rock out with synths, guitars and real drums. They sing harmony & rap. And they have some giant pads. Derivative? Ok ... name me something in pop music that ISN'T these days? whats not to like?

That said, as regend pointed out, it's not really a "big thing" so much as a "big controller", which sucks some of the wow factor out of it.
