The GP32 is an amazing piece of kit that wasn't even supposed to be released outside of Korea at the moment, but seems to have sold a fair few thousand units already. Not surprising, as this ARM processor based machine is pretty amazing considering that it's around the same size as a GBA and far more adaptable.
So, what does the GP32 do? Well, it's an open source portable console. Imagine all the things you can do with your PC, from watching films, playing MP3s to emulating other machines. Imagine having a SNES, Mastersystem, Gameboy Colour, Spectrum, MP3 player, DIVX Movie player and PC game player all in one small machine.
Even the screen is better than the Gameboy Advance, more on a par with the new version. It can connect to mobile phones in order to surf the web (later on, so the developers say) and play internet games.
If you're worried about support, don't be. The internet is already rife with development sites containing anything from home brew products to ports of old PC games and emulators, each growing in power and even ironing out bugs in the operating system.
This is where portable gaming should be going, the open source idea is fantastic to ensure much more flexibility from your handheld.

I think you can buy them on Lik-Sang.com.
I didn't know they were THAT advance though. I'm going to have a look myself.
Basically you can emulate a GBA on this baby.
