I'll never understand the desire for a gaming console in the front seat of a car...do you spend that much time really bored, inside your car that you want to squint at a tiny monitor to play games? Isn't that what a PSP is for?


Now kleeping kids busy on trips in the back of a vehicle - THAT makes 100% sense to me.
