I got mine this weekend and I'm *very* pleased with it! Build quality's excellent, the controls are surprisingly nice to use, the screen's bright and sharp, and the built-in software is actually very well done. The AV-out feature (and having the cable for it included in the pack) adds a whole...

Ah, I beg your pardon. :) Yes indeed! Very cool what you can get on little boards for relatively little money nowadays...

Not using an ordinary laptop, I'm afraid. They're using a SODIMM shaped board, because SODIMM sockets are inexpensive high-density connectors that hold the circuit board plugged into them securely. The idea behind this thing is that when you're creating a new product you make another, less...

ED sieht genauso aus, wie man ihn sich vorgestellt hat...wie ein echter "Hardwarefreak". Erinnert mich fast an einen Doktor oder Professor aus einem bekannten Film, vielleicht "Doc Brown" oder eher noch der eine Professor aus "Independence Day", der über die ganzen Jahre unterirdisch an seinem...

Also das Vectrex und die Groschengräber hätten mich ja schonmal gereizt. Als Alternative gibt's ja bald noch die Retrobörse im Ruhrgebiet. Geht Jemand hin? http://www.retroboerse.de/

Wenn der Eintritt nicht so teuer wäre, würde ich auf jeden Fall mal vorbei schauen aber 60€ sind einfach zuviel. Dazu kommen noch die Fahrtkosten... Denke aber, das ich auf jeden Fall mal darüber berichten werde.;)

Same here, though there's a card from the post office saying there's a "packet" for me to collect...

It's Dio's emulator really, I just occasionally hack on it to make it fit handheld platforms. :P Anyway, I imagine I'll be getting a Wiz at some point, and I imagine that when I do I'll be curious to see what Tempest looks like on that lovely OLED screen.

Thanks for that! It actually looks more the size of the Wiz than a GBA.

Ordered! I've always liked MIPS processors but only had chances to do little bits and bobs for them before. A 400MHz MIPS-alike in a GBA Micro form factor sounds too good to miss! The combination of an LTPS-TFT display and bundled TV out cable might've slightly swayed my decision, too. :)

I'm *really* liking the size and screen of the Wiz. Nice to see Temper and MAME running on it, too! :) Thanks ED!

Rockbox's wiki page says that the JZ4732 is an export version of the JZ4740. http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IngenicJz47xx http://www.ingenic.cn/eng/productServ/App/...CustomPage.aspx So that'll be a 360MHz MIPS-alike, then. B) (edit) I'm fairly sure that's either 32 or 64...

Thanks Orkie! :)

Has anybody actually downloaded the Dingoo SDK? It looks like some sort of login is required, but I'm having trouble creating an account because the error messages are in Chinese.

That's actually quite a useful shot for gauging what size a Wiz is. Looks just about perfect.

Looking through the manual for the OMAP, it certainly *looks* like the ARM core's clock can be reduced to lower than that. I'm not sure how that'd affect its interaction with the caches and memory, though. I'll have to have a good read up on it this weekend...

Even severely underclocked to 10MHz and 20MHz the Pandora would still be a smidge faster than a Series 5 and 5mx respectively. I suspect that when you get below a certain level of underclocking the current drawn by the screen will start to dominate how long the battery lasts and there won't be...

notaz is unstoppable! B)

The Pandora's screen is gorgeous! You've got to see it in person to appreciate it, the videos - especially the YouTube ones - don't really do it justice. The nearest I can think of is the JXD-301's screen, though obviously the Pandora's is physically larger and much higher resolution. But if...
