This new innovative portable system is expected to launch late 2004 in Japan and the US, while it hits Europe early 2005.
Although no official word for the price has been released, it has been rumored that the system will cost approximately $150 (US dollars) to compete with Sony's PSP system (which is expected to be around $200).
Both screens are back-lit allowing for viewing in any surrounding light.
