HOLEEEE SHIT I want one.

The specs:

ARM® Cortex™-A8 600Mhz+ CPU running Linux
430-MHz TMS320C64x+™ DSP Core
PowerVR SGX OpenGL 2.0 ES compliant 3D hardware
800x480 4.3" 16.7 million colours touchscreen LCD
Wifi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth & High Speed USB 2.0 Host
256 MB RAM
Dual SDHC card slots & SVideo TV output
Dual Analogue and Digital gaming controls
43 button QWERTY and numeric keypad
Around 10+ Hours battery life
100ish hours MP3 playtime (screen off)

It runs on a custom version of Linux, I believe. It's open source software and hardware.

It can run emulators from PS1 backwards (in the sense of power), and possibly N64.

Oh, how I want one.

$330!?
Thats a little much. I'd rather get a netbook.
However at the $200 price range I would jump all over it.

$330 for something the size of a DS that can do all that shit, as well as wifi, Bluetooth, Internet via cellphone tether (if you have a data plan), can play ROMs from PS1 back, etc. etc. is a very good price IMO.

It's like an iPhone, but without the suck!

And you can change the battery if you need to. I'm not 100% sure, but I think it actually comes with a spare.
