It has various uses for magicians, one of the characters is a flashing Heart symbol so could be used for “your card is ???? of hearts”, or any other suit.

The programming is very easy (I managed it first time without looking at the instructions) and is good value at the current price

That would be great for a thought tranference routine, have it behind your victim and flash the card to the audience so they all know what it is.
