    Well, as long as he replies soon. If stereotyping has taught us anything, it's that we won't be able to stay on this topic long.

    Console is called DVtech Discovery, it is produced by some rather obscure russian company.
    I plan to buy myself a copy of it and i thought maybe if there's some interest i can import some.
    The price would over 100$ i guess. More like 150$.

    The only disadvantage that i could think of is that it has only 4 buttons instead of 6. And no shift buttons (like on psp). Donnow why they made it, but that's it.
    You can see the only video here.

    From what i've read it has nice sound, nice screen, tv output (tv cable is in bundle) and built-in LI-Ion accum which allows playtime up to SEVEN hours.

    With the price ($100-150) that Dark Sol just quoted us, I won't have one left if I buy this thing

    Yeah, even on the low end, that's a bit much, though I appreciate that info - I will definitely be keeping my eyes open for this one in the future.

    And if you or somebody else does get it, I'll be looking forward to the review. But I will definitely be sitting this particular machine out, considering it is far more expensive than the "real thing" and the "real thing" at least has the proper buttons, more durable construction (presumably) and can be used with Sega hardware such as the AC adapter, etc.

    As for me - my all time fav console is Nomad. But it's not very portable, huge and heavy and works 2 hours at most. That's the main reason why it sits in it's box. This thing even though it's crappy - several times lighter and works like 4x times longer. The main reason why i became interested. I'll keep you informed on this thing.

    So does it have an ac adapter/power supply and what type of batteries does it use (& how many)?

    Edit: Well you sort of answered above, I see.......(built-in LI-Ion accum)

    Is the price from all the shipping both ways? .. as I see it for sale on websites for 1,590.00руб(Russian rubles for those who don't know(100kopeks=1ruble)).

    That is about $50 US dollars

    It's not easy to get it, and the price is higher then those listed. It's Russia
