New Go's won't have detachable controllers? That's unfortunate. I use mine like a tablet. There's no other small Linux-capable tablet that I know of.

edit: actually onexplayer makes similar ones.

Detachable controllers are one of the good points of the switch as well. Definitely think that idea should spread.

Ah ok (:

But they made the bottom chin bigger for some reason? The old go is symmetric.

Also I don't like OLED

Read that the battery life of the Go isn't remarkable. How is it used as a tablet?

Around 10 hours of light web browsing on quiet mode.

That is longer that expected. But I don't know what I even expected. Laptops can reach those times too (although laptops have bigger batteries).
