Charge Cervante whatever you want but keep it less than £40 for the rest of us.

if the dev board is only 30 euros, and the consumer version is 40, i'd probably just buy the consumer ed. though i'd like a version that didn't have it as a cradle, preferably with a wire that was around 45cm long or so. i dunno why, but that'd strike me as a useful feature.

It looks great but I dont think its worth £40. At a push I'd pay £30 inc p&p.
Please dont make these too expensive GPH...

It's unlikely since the bare board costs that much.

As GPH hasn't told us the price yet, also craig can't tell you
Try to guess it...

And it's a bit overpriced. $35 is what the cased one should cost, and $20 the bare-bones one. This is just a bunch of sockets soldered together, it's not a new system. It shouldn't cost that much more than most accessories. This isn't Apple where idiots are willing to pay $50 for any plastic strap that has the Apple logo on it and fits around their shiny IPod...

Try not to miss the point: GP2X's can now be sold bundled with these things, meaning there may be an era when a GP2X just comes with such a docking solution. If that picks up, I'm all for the thing becoming a standard .. I mean, I see no reason not to put a stack underneath that just grows as you add more peripherals to the bottom of the dock..

tbh £25 inc should be the reasonable price for it. £30 at the very most.

Can this only be used as a docking station cradle thing. It looks of size that it could be folded up to the back of the gp2x. Will this be possible, or can it only be used as something for the gp2x to sit on top of. If it could be put on the back then I could have a wifi stick in it and still use it as a portable.

Is that keyboard/wifi thingy ever gonna happen?
If so I'd rather wait and get that instead.

Oh, man.. It looks wonderful. I really hope this could lead to someone (if possible) porting OpenOffice so I can get papers for school and whatnot typed on my gp2x

Because I'd love to browse the web from my campus right on the handheld. Just because you have no use for it doesn't mean I and many others do not (especially I, which is me, Alex!
).Seriosuly, forget the keyboard, all I want is a small WiFi dongle that clips on the EXT port. A virtual keyboard will suffice for checking e-mail and general browsing!

i guess i dont need it cause i have a laptop that works just fine with wi-fi (but a web browser would be cool for the 2x, if wi-fi is ever added)

Umm... I'm pretty sure someone already got a Wifi USB Stick working with their homemade USB HUB... It was quite a few months back that I saw the topic about it.
