Hi Anthony here,

The games Wizards in Granville have heaps on lynx stuff,  The have about
30-40 games for it, plus carry cases and comlynx cables and the battery pack.

I went there today to check out the lynx.

A person and Dick Smith in Parramatta said that atari were launching
a campaign soon on the lynx,  the special was a lynx + game +$20 voucher
for $169.99

He also told me that the lynx 2 was coming out in Sept.(but that has to
be seen to be believed).

I too want to get the lynx but I'm waiting until I get more info about
the system and games.

I have seen pictures of Batman returns on the lynx and it looks really good.
Other games I want to get are Rolling Thunder and Shadow of the beast.(yes 
a Sega megadrive game).

Thats all in the mag, some of the games are in OZ but not too many.

regarding the lynx club, a friend of mine told me that he got a coupon
to send into this club and he got all these free stuff.  I'm waiting for
him to send a fax to me and tell me the address.  I'll e-mail you as 
soon as I have it.

Hope that helped you.  If you have any more quest or you have new info
tell me ok.
