<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>It definately interests me. Full 3D, 1.8 G storage medium for games. 18:9 ratio LCD screen, and all with the clout of Sony behind it. This looks like the only real contender to the Gameboy. I can see it taking 'some' marketshare from Nintendo, but how much?</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It's all about the price. The reason the GB survived for so long is 'cause it was cheap. If this thing debuts at $200US, it's dead. The magical price point is $100 US, as everyone from Sega to Atari to NEC has found out</div>
