European GP32 and more questions

[TigerClaw]

Hi people,

First I WANT TO BUY A GP32!

Second I want to understand if I need the european version of gp32.
When it will be disponible? I don't know if I can resister for 1 mounth...
For what it will be different from the Asian one?
I want to use the GP 32 with the future porting of Linux or NetBSD and code on it.

Third.
Where to buy it? lik-sang? on in UK? (I'm from Italy the local store wants 200€ auauauuau crazy B) )

Bye all

I think the Euro launch has been rescheduled with a different company for around April 2004. But you should hurry because Gamepark has 800 GP32s left. If you live in Italy, definetly buy from GBAX. BTW, I recommend that you buy a FLU as you won't regret it

thank you man

Just for curiosity the european one will be different?

It will probably just have a different colored shell and firmware (which you will be able to download).

Yes it is true, the firmware is released and you can download it from gp32x.de (left menu under firmware)

Sweet as, Does it look like the original firmware or is it different i dont wanna really go flashin my gp32 till i know what it is like.. soz.

The firmware looks a lot different and IMO is way better.

Nice one mate what else has it got?

It's really great. You should just back up your original firmware and try out the new one and if you don't like it, go back to the orignial one.

It's a litle bit faster (shorter loading times) it looks a lot better and it got a new intro!
The programs are sorted out and you don't have to start the freelauncher anymore

I have flashed my FirmWare once with MultiFW2 if i was you I would do the same or wait for MultiFW3 (multiFW will have the new europe firmware as a boot optie)
