The lynx backlight you can turn on and off, it's really an amazing handheld. That is exactly what gameboy's need. A backlight that can be turned on and off.

IMO I think back lights suck (no playing outside int he light), I would rather have a front light which I can turn off and on (cant wait till portale monopoly releases the front light kit for the GBA). The Lynx, well, I have never owned one but I have played one and in my experence its more of a handheld then a portable, the thing makes the game gear look small. But, the games on it are really good and since Song Bird is still making games for it you wouldnt hav eto worry about running out of games to play. But, if you want a REALLY powerful handheld I suggest you dish out the extra couple of bucks for a GP32, it has a HUGE screen, great sound, mp3 player, image viewer, and its about the same size as a GBA. But you will have to import from lik-sang.com since there the only place which importing them. But if you want the most bang for your buck I say go for a Neo Geo Pocket Color, it has the BEST LCD screen out there (no odd angles like the GBC), a little joystick instead of a cramped up D-pad, and there is not one bad game for it, it has a great library of games such as Sonic, Metal Slug 2, SNK Vs. Capcom (better then the DC version), Puyo Puyo Pop, Snk Vs. Capcom Card Fighters Clash, Faselie, King of Fighters R2, asnd I can go on and on. You can pick one up for cheap at therage.com but I suggest you spend 60 bucks on the newer model because its smaller and cooler looking (the original is already really small though).
I hope I help ya
