I mean... I'm not about to preorder or anything, but the idea of an open source handheld with emulators shipped as standard is sweet. The only things lacking are a HD and out-of-the-box wireless, but with the USB and a linux-based OS, that can be changed...

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.
