Aside from the cool GBA Camera, another add-on to look out for is the GBA TV Tuner. It will be available in Hong Kong sometime in June, and will sell for around US$70.

On the contary, I thought the TV adaptor for GameGear was pretty good. So long as they can keep the price down, it make be a cool investment (although I can see it not working so good on a non-backlight GBA).

Yes, but then you'd better turn on your TV and leave the GBA.
Why would you want a portable TV that needs a DC adapter??
