Check out rec.games.video...  There has been a lot of really positive talk
coming across there about the Lynx (which is real and is availiable in a 
very limited quantity).  I stopped in our local "Toys-Sure-R-Expensive"
store and they had the Lynx and a few cartridges listed in their price
book (Lynx with California Games cartridge: $179.95) but they have not
had any in the store yet.  People in L.A. have already got them.
Interesting note:  The resolution of the Lynx color LCD screen is exactly
1/2 that of the Amiga Low-Res screen (160X100) and it can display 32 colors.
From what I gather, there is a developers kit that will be made available
for the Amiga.  All in all the Lynx sounds like it is really nice!
