Chinavision Portable Emulator plays SNES, Genesis, NES, GBA and more.

There is a cool story on Engadget about a Portable media device that plays music, movies, ebooks, photos, retro games and more. It has 4GB of internal memory, a miniSD slot for extra space, a 2.8 QVGA LCD, and TV out support. Pretty impressive for $87.31. I think I might get one of these. Check out a video review here(note: this device has a different name but its exactly the same) the engadget story here and a direct link to chinavision's website here.
