What is the "unofficial" release date for the LYNX?  What's holding up it's
release.  From what I've seen, comparing the Lynx to the Gameboy is like
comparing an Amiga to a Mac+.  If they can keep game prices down, perhaps under
$25.00, they will have quite a sucessful product.  I know I want to buy one.

BTW, will it be possible to use a regular TV as an optional display?

Please, oh please, don't make this a vaporware product.  Stop wasting time on
the TT and ATW, get the Lynx out within a month!! :-).
