    Windows Ce 5.0

    And how is that on-topic? This is the Wiz section, not the "Netbooks" section. But then again, at a price of:¥0, I'll take two!

    Instruction Manuel

    To which people will probably reply "But then how do I use my Pandora which I claim for a new battery on the warranty?" and the answer is "You'll use your spare that you bought with the device" :-)

    Caanoo / WIZ Developing On The Wiz Itself?

    Both are possible, but I think G++ is a little greedy in regards to memory consumption, so Java is probably better. What you'll need is an onscreen keyboard, command line and a decent editor. The first two have already been done on the 2X, so shouldn't take long to port to the Wiz if they have...

    It's Smaller, Faster, Cheaper And Available This Year!

    This belongs in "Other consoles", along with the other threads on this same topic.

    Instruction Manuel

    I agree that they shouldn't include how to disassemble the device in the instruction manual. How to remove the battery, sure, but don't go much further. Maybe put a "how to disassemble" video onto the website or youtube however for the people that want it instead of people breaking the device...

    Somewhat Unhappy With The Gp2X- Where's All The Software?

    Your saying that to someone who has "schizoaffective disorder" as an interest :blink:

    Projects That Seemed To Disapear

    Icontrolpad is still being worked on AFAIAA, it's most likely being delayed by Pandora-related stuff.

    Instruction Manuel

    MP3 is patented. That means that any software which uses the patented algorithm has to pay the appropriate royalty fees. You can either write the software yourself or license specific decoding software. If you write it yourself, the fee has been 75c per unit for a long time, with a minimum...

    Instruction Manuel

    A while ago, Microsoft didn't pay the licensing fee, and Windows couldn't play MP3 files as it didn't know how. It didn't take long before information spread on various forums, word of mouth and other that people could just download a piece of software called "Winamp". It certainly didn't tell...

    Instruction Manuel

    What you are saying makes sense, it just needs to be made sure that unlicensed codecs such as MP3 don't seem to be endorsed by the manufacturer, and placing a note in the manual saying things like "Install this app from here" sounds like they would be doing exactly that even if they didn't...

    Pandora Car Kit

    The official line is that if you want to post in a topic that was last active in several months ago, you should create a new thread and reference the old one in the first post. That way people don't start reading from the beginning and then notice the date after the 3rd page and grumble - they...

    A/v Cables Have Arrived!

    No, it's a fact. The cable WILL cause a delay, however small, and so will the TV. I never said it was the entire reason for all of the delay, what I said is that those two do cause delays. There's probably also a delay incured by generating the S-Video signal as opposed to the digital RGB lines...

    Instruction Manuel

    It would be daft to include suggested downloads, as theres a good chance those downloads would be obsolete by the time you got the manual, and would also mean constantly updating the manual, throwing old ones away, etc. Also, they can't tell you to install package X from url Y to get MP3 as that...

    Instruction Manuel

    I'd say the manual provided with the device will tell you thing like opening the case (to view the LCD, not where the screws are located), how to turn the thing on, inserting/removing sd cards, replacing the battery, basic troubleshooting, how to clean the device, and then basic do's and dont's...

    A/v Cables Have Arrived!

    Well, there will be a delay induced by the cable, as no electronics are instantaneous (the reason you find those strange squiggly lines on PCB boards to ensure every trace is the same length) but that really isn't worth bothering about as it'll be so small. The largest delay will caused by your...

    How Much Was Raised For The Dev Fund?

    Yes, the information is most likely on computers, but how do you know that the computer Craigix uses for viewing the forums when he has time has access to the accounts? He may need to a computer in a different building to get that information. Regardless, I doubt its going to take several...

    How Much Was Raised For The Dev Fund?

    I'm assuming it'll take time to compute, and time that at the moment, he doesn't have. He probably doesn't have the total amount scribbled down somewhere.

    Diy Sdxc Mod

    Yes, the spec says upto 60MB/sec (but redefines 1MB as 1,000,000 bytes, so it's really 57.22MB), but regardless that is marketing speak as you can never use up all the bandwidth on USB - Firstly, slaves can't talk unless they are spoken to by the master, secondly there is much more data sent...

    Swapping Sd Cards

    The Wiz runs Linux, so the card is "mounted" when you insert it into the slot and "unmounted" when you remove it. However if there are any open files on the card when you remove it, the unmount will be refused by the OS to prevent data corruption. It doesn't know the card is physically...
