Infomercial Watch: Slap Chop

have you seen this one? Slap Chop is the newest infomercial with vince, the sham-wow guy - the newest star infomercial pitch man. a couple things.....
first off: should a guy that got arrested for punching a prostitute be doing an infomercial for a product called slap chop?
second: how lame does this thing look? it is so small it is gonna take a lot of slap chopping to make anything for more than one person - one very little person (maybe that's why he needed the prostitute, because his hands were sore from slap chopping so much in order to get enough for a normal sized human being)...
in one example he uses a mini carrot, a small piece of celery and a little radish and slap chops away - i mean come on, what are you gonna do with that? in another example he puts one strawberry and one piece of mango... this thing would be great for the "whos" that horton hears. he goes so fast and slap chops up so many different combinations that it looks good, but does anybody else watch this and think how minimal the amount of stuff he is actually creating?
third: "are you getting this camera guy" was my favorite line/moment from the sham-wow infomercial and with the slap chop i think i gotta go with his no-look over the back toss of the competitors product that lands right in the sink - i wonder how many takes that took?.... oh yeah, i almost forgot when he shows off the ability of the product to chop up nuts and he says "you're gonna love my nuts." - i mean come on, that is gold right there people!
