hi, i'm having the same prob. too, need one shell and 2 tablets and get my chief to point and nothing some days. not even a mushroom. down to 40 pop, just from lack of interest, got all the puzzels, and awards and the other collect. good idea about the screen on the side. will try that,

another question; does anyone have all the mods in a package deal that you can just download into your game. i'm a gamer not a geek and don't have the first clue about how to play in the guts of the machine. just want it to work.
