I think, depending on available memory, and if ppl see it may be worth while, you will see little mods or hacks for these devices also. Most likely they will be hardware hacks unless these devices run the windows or other handheld operating systems. If they do run an operating system i can see a replacement being created as in xbox. As for modding a console after you buy it, i dont see anything black hat about it. Once something is payed for and you own it, you can smash it with a hammer or mod it to hell because it is now owned by you. I dont see something this small storring games as in the xbox though. But of course i havnt looked at how it runs yet.
