Its actually called a Dingoo A320, do NOT buy form thinkgeek. its a brilliant device, but much cheaper elsewhere. thinkgeek purposely dont give its correct name so people cant shop around for a better deal. it 80 dollars or less everywhere else.
it also has a budding homebrew community at http://a320.freeforums.org/

You can get them much cheaper on dealextreme:

Some of the emulators are not quite up to the task, but for the most part it works well and well worth the $82 it costs.

There is a pretty large following on the net working to make it better:

With linux right around the corner, you should definitely pick one up :)
