The Gizmondo is probably the most underrated handheld right now. It's a definite in the competiton with the DS and PSP, where the only upper hand is the game libarary. I mean this thing defeats the PSP in media capabilites, a VGA ingrated camera that shoots as sharp as a Motorola RAZR, it can play mp3s/wma, you can save a movie on your computer and playback it back on the gizmondo, it also has a GPS system, Bluetooth so you won't have to wonder why can't you get those pictures/music/videos off the device, MMS messaging so it can send to cell phones and itself, GPRS for world-wide gaming! And a good whole of battery power. And it's only getting knocked for design and popularity. Now these features compared to the DS and PSP...
