Holy crappola - are thos prices correct? Thats works out to the equivalent of $485 usd for the Zod and $592 usd for the Zod 2. I knew that this kind of item was more in the uk, but this is double the price! Is this a mistake?

As someone possibly looking for a new portable gaming device I will look elsewhere. Also is Duke and Doom 2 the best on offer?...

First post so hi all.
