Well I would think that's only one crate of them and that there's more and they only did one for dramatic effect so you could actually see inside it so they could confirm it to everyone like that :lol:

Confirmed to be clicky. Probably won't be using it much myself...

"HK Mktg" (new marketing guy) over on Facebook has put the one color only available at launch rumor to rest, for a second container which should have arrived today has the black units for all those who pre-ordered in that color. (the first container has the gray units)

He also knows the release date, but has not divulged that information outside of the company yet.

EDIT: HOLD UP -- IGN reports they are shipping starting tomorrow! This is not the release date, but they are starting to move them. No details on whether it is the actual stores or online retailers getting them (as per soft launch rumor in The Cover Project thread), but as of right now it's safe to say progress is finally being made!

EDIT 2: HK Mktg guy says expect press release and official announcement on Facebook tomorrow.

The IGN video I see has been covered. GBA games looking amazing. That's my big use of it right there.
