45 minute bus trip to and from university to my home... Laptop battery lasts 25 minutes tops... Dont already have a GBA.. Buying the SP is a reasonable option.

I think the SP goes for like 10 hours with the light on and 14 with it off. It uses a Lithium Ion battery like a lap top, and comes with an AC adapter. When you're not playing, just plug it in and recharge it. Im very excited.

Size comparisons with stuff:

no it lasts 18 hours without light. the reason nintendo is finally able to include a light is because they got the battery usage efficient enough. i had a light for my old gba and it suckes the life out of the batteries faster than dracula sucks the blood out of a gullible sexy woman.

Yeah, I knew that. Gamespot and IGN have nice little features about about the SP.

I love the comparison Siege.. LMOA

Here is some linkage that was posted on Slashdot. Most of you may have already seen it, but it has pics of the inside of the GBA:SP (warrenty void), and a few movies of people playing it.

did anyone other then break see that ign sp movie were the guy takes a bat to his old GBA. Many that pissed me off. They was a sweet GBA even if it wasn't and SP. What a waste.


Hey Break when do you want to go to the Old Place in Kyoto? :lol: After that we could go to nintendo.
