Thanks! Okay, the mystery range is now: 2006.03.09 - 2006.05.19

You're a Mk1. Thanks everybody for making the effort to type in your data. All we really need at this point is info about serial numbers in this range: 2006.03.09 - 2006.05.22

If you're going to make a practical joke like this work, you have to make it believable :)

Better buy a spare GP2X and save it for the future, just in case! :)

Cool! New range: 2006.03.09 - 2006.05.22

Sometimes. From their web site, the MMSP2+ is on a 0.13 micron fab process instead of the 0.18 micron process of the MMSP2; shrinking the transistors like that usually means lower power consumption per transistor. Beats me though. Note that this discussion is all just for fun, not rumor...

Well the obvious upgrade is to switch to the "MMSP2+". http://www.mesdigital.com/english/Products...duct_mmsp2p.asp That would be a pretty kick-ass upgrade and might not cost them too much in terms of re-engineering the hardware and software.

Woo hoo! New range: 2006.01.27 - 2006.05.23

Ok, but looking for colourd doesn't give much benefit, since if I don't colourd will still wreck my carefully chosen gamma values in a few seconds anyway :)

I don't even really care about backwards compatibility with the gp2x... the gp2x wasn't compatible with the gp32 and it didn't stop the gp2x from being a "success" (where "success" is defined by the manufacturer not going out of business, heh). If it's true that gp2x sales are dead (I'm not...

Excellent! Now we know that the switchover date is between 2006.01.27 and 2006.05.26 !

None of those help narrow down the cutoff date, but thanks for checking it out for me!

Yup, exactly, thanks! Now the "cutoff" is somewhere between 2006.01.27 and 2006.06.10

Hi Everybody! As part of my quest to tell a Mk1 from a Mk2 in code, I need to make the best guess I can about the cutoff date in the serial numbers. So, I'm looking for the OLDEST Mk2 out there, and the NEWEST Mk1. You can get the date by going to the Info page on your menu. I'll start us...
