Excellent. I'll definitely be adding my name to the list. Assuming it doesn't cost a million dollars of coarse. :D

Strangely... I have the ability to emulate on my Mac what the Lynx can do, play any image, project onto a larger screen, and use a USB controller. I'm starting to believe that the Lynx might be the only Atari system not worth getting a flash solution for.

But that's still not playing them on the actual system. I want to be holding that bulky device and staring intently into it's glowing screen. :D The tactile sensations are half the fun of playing on vintage systems. It's just not the same otherwise.

Hey this is great news. :) Manual is not a huge deal as long as one is online. Packing... no issue. Language data, I take it works to a good degree at least. I look forward to this. Any idea on how much money I should be saving for this doo-dad?

Whatever Lynxman wants, Lynxman gets. I will finally be able to collect CIB/NEW for Lynx and be able to keep them safe in their boxes! I'm ready to order when you are ready to sell!

Thanks,
AX
