EAGB have a review/article on the Flash Advance Linker for Gameboy Advance. This downloader and blank ROM cartridge allow you to backup GBA ROM images on to a blank cart for playing on your console.
Oh and it can be used as a Dev tool too..

Is that a metallic GBA I spy at the bottom of the page, or is it just the rubber fetish gear that it's wearing that's making it look funny? Nope, it's definitely not a white one cause the buttons aren't dark enough, where did this magical creature come from?
Its a limited edition Pokemon one. If you check out the bottom left of the GBA's screen you'll see a little Pokemon. There's a Metallic Green one too. I think you get them from the Pokemon store in Tokyo..

Wired have just posted a feature on the GBA Flash Linker..

It also links to this Technical Review..

Haha, nice typo from the Wired article:
"Games sucked off their cartridges by the Linker are called "ROMs" and are readily traded on the Net just like MPs"
Is this the first recorded evidence of an underground internet-based slave-trade? :)
