I wonder if I could put my gtablet in one of those...  And then you have some real emulators! 

Heck for 100 bucks, I wonder if you can find any 10" lcd, and maybe a cheap fanless via board or something.

Early reviews said the bluetooth controls weren't pairing to other devices well or at all, so you wouldn't be able to use anything from it other than the wood most likely.  At that point, you should just build one yourself if you ask me.
XtraSmiley:
It seems a good price for a pre-built, but why so many buttons? No vert game has that many buttons, and playing horizontal games like that would be terrible.

Anyone have one to post how easy it would be to mod with a new cp withy only say, 3 or 4 buttons?

I have the Atari app on my iPad 2 with a few games and its ok.  The selection is largely Atari 2600 games, and some of the arcade ports are ok, but not great.  I wonder how much use the machine will get for me even though I already have the iPad.  I'd still consider getting one though, but if the Atari app doesn't expand and/or other apps jump on board, it may lose its appeal pretty quickly.

Also the mock up graphics look better IMO than the final. Wood grain? It's not a 2600 or a really bad generic cab you'd want to emulate...
