Hand-held 3D printing???

This is an interesting concept...drawing 3 dimensionally!  And it sounds like it will be priced in a way to make it accessible.

And here is there website: http://www.the3doodler.com/

Should the library have these when they are available?  Should we circulate them in-house?  Let people take them home?  Should they have to pay for the plastic???
