Take a look at this:-

It's about a new handheld console called "GP32".
A Korean firm called GamePark, and Matsushita (a Nintendo partner interestingly enough) are making it.
Like the GBA, the machine will be 32-bit. Sporting a 32-bit RISC CPU, a color LCD screen, 8MB of SDRAM, and 8MB of ROM, the machine is definitely looking to impress. The system's screen will feature a 320x240 resolution (slightly sharper than the GBA's), and claims of a ten-hour battery life using only two AA batteries.
One advantage this console has over the GBA is that the company plans to make the machine Open Source. What this means is that people will be able to make their own games and software for the machine. I think this will help make the machine very popular. There's loads of people out there that like to tinker about with programming consoles, and making software, and I think this conosle is gonna appeal to them.
What do other people think of this new console?

looks interesting...
any idea on price, when it'll be available, anything like that?
the emulator and the games creation things look nice...

It all looks very nice indeed..
And seeing that the Neo Geo Pocket wasn't even out for a full year in Japan, this new machine will have to make sure it's nothing like SNK's handheld.
The system looks dodgey, but the games look quite good. But the games could look good and have no gameplay at all but I think the games will have it just by looking at some of the screenshots.
Although it looks good I don't think it will beat the GBA, it'll end up being like the Neo Geo Pocket.
