True. Who needs a device with multiple skills if none of them is performed good? You can't combine features in disadvantage of their function ... example: N-Gage.

I know a little about this device... Although only a little.

Firstly, there's a bit of a preview of it at instertcredit if you search back through the news. If I remember rightly, it was describd as being "like the n-gage, but it felt *right*" - so at a guess, this is the one to go for of the 2 as and when it comes out. Or not. Not sure about screen-size etc.

The name, also, is from a song (I'm fairly sure).

There was a farmer had a dog and Bingo was his name, oh.
B
I
N-G-O x3

Then you missed off letters with each time through - the first one being the I, then N, then G, and last O.

So I kind of like the name :)
