Mine just came Monday. What a great deal for just $49.99 shipped, and I just ordered it Friday. While I love it so far, a couple of minor gripes:
I really don't like how in order to change the batteries (4 AA), I have to use a mini screwdriver to take the back off. Also, why AA? Why not a recharable like digital camera's use? Finally, while the huge NES cart has to stick out, it would have been nice if it went down all the way to minimize it. It goes down less than halfway. An inch and a half is clearly wasted.
Now, the positives:
I just tested it with Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (on purpose, to celebrate the release of the Wii version just released). The screen is crisp and clear, and I like the button layout. They didn't get the "A" and "B" backwards this time. Sound is loud. Slightly muzzled, but should be much better with headphones. While a bit thick, the unit (hehe, I said "thick unit") is very light and compfortable. Was a pleasure to play. I can't tell you how well battery life is yet, nor can I say how hooking it up to a TV is yet, but I'm sure the latter is fine. All in all a great deal, I got it here:

I'm already working on the next project and the upcoming E3 show but I do appreciate the feedback.
btw Sega of America, Sega of Japan and AtGames has changed our product names for those Genesis consoles. It's now "Firebox Diamond - Video Game Console" and "Digital Pocket - Handheld System"
An SD slot would we be inviting protest due to copyright this and that IE enabling use of illegal roms. They would have to push pretty hard that its for homebrew only then.
