That's 240Mhz.
LOL*
That's why the red led in the bottom right corner is for.
One more thing, in your review you showed a photo of two Duracell alkalines, and never once said that the GP2X needs rechargeable Ni-MH batteries to get decent battery lifetime. You did say the word "rechargeables" once though, but that was slightly out of context.
* Don't forget that your comments about homebrew games granted you an asswipe status at least in my eyes. That's not a way to get welcomed here. People invest their personal time and effort to distribute you entertainment free of charge, and this is how you repay them?

"Would you rather play a game written by one guy in 2006 and a budget of pizza and coke or 100 people in 1996 and a budget of 3 million?"
Are the dates the wrong way round??

well I wouldn't take it so serious. Take it with a grain of salt, since the whole article is basically written for entertainment. It's not directly insulting also. It's more of a funny remark about the choices you can make. Either play homebrew or emulate an old system... I don't see the quality of games compared by budget of pizza versus 3 million bucks...

I won't get angry about it either, as the whole review seems hilarious and pretty much tongue-in-cheek all the time 
In fact I find it hilarious pretty much all the way throught.

That's pretty funny. I like the part about how Korea "comes in two versions".

I liked the review, but I couldn't find Gonzo or any other muppet for that matter

By far the most entertaining and overall best written review for the gp2x. You are a great writer.

Your link to the 'drum machine' is the same link as to the Mandelbrot generator. At first glance, that would appear to be a mistake.
Well-written review though.

Definitely LMAO on that one. Had to call the spousal unit in the room to read it.

Hey Alex
I have nothing at all against homebrew - I have made my own homebrew/freeware/shareware games myself
Its just a matter of economics and productivity. Im sure tehre are some HB games for the GP that are much better than most "big budget" games from a decade ago, but defo not allMat

By the way, you mentioned GIMP and OpenOffice. I THINK (haven't tried it myself) that Gimp and Abiword already work (see http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?s=&am...st&p=437041 ).

There is a virtual keyboard in there too for use with the joystick.
