A ligthing device that is sad to be the perfect resloution to the GBA lighting problems. They clain that once installing there product it will light up the outside of the of the screen, and if you have a clear coloured GBA it will light the whole thing up. But you'll have to install it yourself, They claim it is as easy to install as a mod chip and will sell for about the price of GBA game, but will probably void the warrenty. It can be ordered off the internet or can be purchased at radio shack. and my questions are, have you heard any thing else about this porduct? Will you buy it? and, what do you think of it?

I read about that in a magazine a couple weeks ago. Its too bad that it couldn't have been put in the games in the first place.

I want it. I have a clear GBA so wouldn't that be cool? :D
Howard, please use spell checker. Your errors confused me a couple times.

I remember when that guy was at the IGN boards and he thought it up and started experimenting...now he's famous for this thing. Go figure.
That sounds really cool - no more adjusting angle of the screen to catch the best light. Plus it's only $35, which when added to the new price of the gameboy it almost equals the original price.

So, when you learn to spell, you won't be a pansy anymore. I don't use it because I can spell (most of the time). :D

O, I just got a E-mail from them with soem updates.
They are so helpful they answered all my questions heer's what they said:
-How bright is it?
"Pretty bright, you have to see it to believe it! :)"
-Will this waste my batteries any faster?
"You'll get about 10 hours out of one good pair of batteries"
-Will it come to any stores?
"Stores like best buy and radio shack maybe, but probably not, your best bet is to order it :)"
I don't know why he put a smilie face there, but that is just some more info for you guys. If you have any wuestions use the e-mail on there site, they respond very quickly, and o so freindly :D

I think battery life now is about 15 hours. I don't really care cuz I got AA batteries up to wazooo!!
P.S.- NEVER ask for AA bateries for Christmas. I did this year and I got 46 batteries. No more money for AA batteries in the 5 years for me :).
