I do not argue at all about how useful such device is. All I know that many people would like to buy one at the price offered by uConsole (USD 75 + USD 25 for shipping). You mention the game*mite: is that something that one can buy ready to go and that accepts an external keyboard? Can you please point me in the right direction?
