Interesting idea but sounds like it has some design issues.

Not the first time I've seen one of these, although the one I used at my local game store was crap.
Wonder what these are like.
 
That pretty good looking hardware in the image above was made by Nintendo. ;)

What I think I really want is a device that kinda fits in a pocket, and I can play all my old games on (bonus points for ones that weren't handheld), that has hardware controls, and a keyboard, because this dream device needs Linux (plus old computer games), and some basic mobile phone functionality. I could see something like this being fairly successful if consumers could see beyond Android devices. Maybe someone will release such a device in Two Months.
