Post by: Flying_Chao on June 19, 2008, 10:20:25 PM: Well, I like the DS.

Post by: R1885 on June 19, 2008, 10:28:21 PM: Same here, but my other favs is the Gameboy line, SEGA's GAMEGEAR, Antari Lynx, and the NEOGEO pocket color.
FUN FACT: DS does not stand for "Dual Screen", it stands for "Developer' System".

Post by: R1885 on June 20, 2008, 10:19:33 AM: You know? I just thught of some thing, i'm going to hear that "GameBoy" is the best, or "DS", or "PSP". But how many of you will say that "Gizmondo" or "Gamegear" is the best???
Title: Handhelds!
Post by: Flying_Chao on June 20, 2008, 10:26:30 AM: I have never heard of Gizmondo, and Gamegear is old.

Post by: R1885 on June 20, 2008, 10:33:00 AM: Gizmondo came out in 2005, made by UK comp. It never sold well, due to the fact that the maker drove his car as if he was in "Flat out2". It only sold 25,000 uinits world wide.

Post by: Acer on July 24, 2008, 04:50:35 PM: Personally, the Game Boy hand-held consoles rocked, as is the Nintendo DS and even the PlayStation Portable.

Yeah, and I bet you're able to carry an ATX-sized pc case in your pockets as well. Come on, that's an idiocy to say in a discussion about handhelds...

There are computers you can carry in your pocket...

PSP's are better.

Personally, I would love to carry some sort of "hand-held" computer to my pockets. That would rock. Seriously.

Does laptops make the list too of "carrying it everywhere" kind of stuff?

Yeah, there are rather small computers out there, but I doubt anybody would call them "best"...

Yeah the PSP's got some good specs! I wish it had a longer battery and was smaller though.

Well, the Asus eee and its clones are about as near as you can get to having a pocket-size computer. However at that size phones or PDAs have operative systems that are probably more usable.
