Not bad for what it does! No worrying about hacked firmware or devices like on the PSP and DS.

Have to say I'm tempted by that. Considering I can play these games for free on the PC allready if I want to, it seems a little expensive just for the convenience of being handheld. But it's interesting. Thanks for the link.
Where can I get one?
It looks very cheap, are there more pictures where you can actually see something running on it? Then I would profer ro get the GP2X Whiz --> http://gp2x.co.uk/
Demon Cleaner, I can do nothing but agree that Whiz looks nice. I think you get what you pay for, but according to THB over at EAB this cheapo little device isn't half bad for what it does.
Could indeed be interesting. But how does it run the games? Is it preconfigured to run the ROMs of the said systems, or does it need emulators?
Not sure - emulators probably. :unsure:
According to Thinkgeek's product page, it doesn't need you to install any emulators. It plays the roms out of the box. Also it plays a bunch of audio and video formats, and has a radio and ebook reader software. All you need to provide is the media.
About the GP2X
