General Comments

Well you get what you pay for, and I am more then happy with the Gizmondo games console. OK, the games are a bit pants, and the mono speaker is a bit basic, but - and it's a big 'BUT', put in the Sat Nav software, and off you go. Walking or driving it's top notch, or in my case, on with the stereo headphones into the pocket, and you can use it on a motorbike, and when you know where you're going, you can put a film on instead and shut the passenger up, or if you're too busy watching a film (when you're not supposed to) and have an accident, you can use the camera for evidence, and then use the text function to let people know you're OK!.

I wouldn't recommend it for games, but it has got so much going for it in other areas. Check it out - Sat nav, Gps (phones a number if it goes out of a certain area, let's see a PSP do that) camera, movies, MP3, bluetooth, text messaging and games.

A future classic? Who knows?
