I've got mine ordered too, just hope im lucky enough to get one from this batch

For the option "+ stick button at the bottom:", if I select "modification: NO" because I plan to do it myself, will I get the stick button sent to me as well? Plus instructions, maybe? I'm sure I can figure it out, but any help is always appreciated. $46 plus shipping is pretty expensive, I'd much rather DIY and save a ton. Also, how much does it cost for just the parts without VAT (for us outside the EU)?

I think VAT is only in Britain? Maybe wrong though.

 

[Ravnos]

It says "Price incl. 19 % VAT", so I'm assuming that applies to anyone in the EU.

 

[deepmenace]

17 euros p&p to the UK if anyone's interested.

i'm gonna stick with the stick i think , i'm pretty happy with it.

...tempted though...

 

[nubie]

Yeah at shipping to US is damn expensive I'm afraid

MK1 might still be left, I haven't checked with the preorders yet.

I would buy one, but the shipping is crazy, it isn't like ED or DaveC is making money off of the high price I would pay. But all that money just for shipping would be nuts. :wacko:

I want to do the mod myself too.

 

[Nova]

My dremelling skills proved... inadequate.

ROFL. I'm sorry, I shouldn't laugh, and obviously I'm sorry for your loss, but that's the funniest thing I have seen today.


Dude, poor you.

 

[EvilDragon]

Okay, most MK1 are gone already - only two left at the moment.
The rest of you guys who already ordered should've gotten an eMail already whether you got one (MK1) or not (MK2)

@DaveC: Already 9 MK2 on preorder... I guess we got a lot more work to do, eh?

 

[Alpha2]

Say quick question. I've been away for a while and havent been keeping up, great to see this finally beceome something I can seriously concider since the stick issue has had my 2X sitting arounc catching dust.

Anyway my question is: what exactly dose the option "+ stick button at the bottom" mean anyway?? There's no explaination on the site that I can see and I'd really like to know if it's something I might need before I take the plunge which I definatly feel is a good idea.

It means they'll also mod the GP2X so that there's an extra button to replace the "stick click" that you lose when the d-pad is installed. I asked a question about purchasing it with the d-pad to install myself but it wasn't answered.

 

[Alpha2]

Ah I see thanks. I didnt realize that was an issue. I didnt recall any mention of the loss when I first read about DaveCs mod.

Without VAT, it's 19% less.
Or you can setup an account and log in as it will show the price without VAT (if you're outside the EU).
If you take + stick button and without modification, you'll get the kit including the stick button.

I don't charge anything for modding the stick button, as it doesn't take much more time when I already mod the gp2x itself, so the price is the same.

So DIY is possible.

 

[BobBorakovitz]

so sad... i have a farked up dpad mod, but wont be able to order your dpad until tomorrow. I really doubt any will be left then

 

[PokeParadox]

Is it possible to get a stick click mod separately... since I might just have to send my 2X to Germany again in the future if so... (I got my dpad just before ED investigated stick click options )

Ok, cool. I ordered one.

Pricey, though. The shipping on this is killing me. Hopefully it's worth it.

 

[Optimistic]

How can I tell if I have a MK1 or a MK2?

The back of mine says GP2X-F100( B ) from 2006.


I looked around the wiki, but it wasn't very helpful.

Edit: damn smilies on the B )

 

[EvilDragon]

If it says (B) it's an MK2.

Okay... out of stock again for the moment, so the product page in my shop is disabled.

 

[Fishbong]

Obviously the best solution would be for GPH to just put in a damn D-pad themselves in the first place. But suggesting something to the insanely stubborn GPH is worse than talking to a wall. I would get more response out of the wall :rolleyes:

Yeah, it seems if anyone can judge stubbornness here, then it´s you, Dave .

 

[ralp99]

ohhh i never ever look at gp32x forums anymore...

please don't chastise me for not searching the boards and just gimme the straight skinny.. is this the ultimate mod that finally relinquishes all the crappy control problems that everyone has had with the 2X? I was a superfan of GP32 and always wanted to upgrade but the stick issues always seemed too irritating to ignore.

is it finally time to fork over, at last?

i know this mod is all "sold out" for the time being but sounds like there's more in stock eventually...
