I think your right. but its still an excellent device. its could almost be classed as a new console in its own right.
the fact that you can take it with you and remote play your ps4, no matter were you are (internet connection speed dependant im sure) is an excellent feature.
and by the looks of things it could retail at under £100. no release date has been set outside of japan yet, but I would think early too mid 2014
