There are a multitude of reasons it takes years to develop a handheld gaming device. Nearly all of the attempts fail because it's more work than most of us with all our nitpicking can even imagine. -_-BTW, if you don't think that good quality cases can be made at home, do some research. Some portable-console guys have pretty good and cheap techniques to make alright cases (nothing fancy or really sturdy, but unique in their own way). And the hardware inside these tablets isn't that complex either, usually one L-shaped PCB covering about 30% of the surface and the rest is the battery and screen, I already did my research on that.
I'd like an OLED screen that doesn't degrade like the gp2x Wiz's panel too, but GCW's Justin has stated that it's difficult to source cheaply.The Vita have a high quality Oled screen and the smartphones have AMOLED screen, for a cheap console like the GCW Zero it will be a cheap Oled screen, for the same price we can have an high quality LCD.

I wouldn't say ripping off the idea, think the info of each were released around the same time. The video in the OP was published after this news article, the actual leak of the s5100 info being published a couple days before the article was published.

at a very minimum they released the info during the same time frame, it seems like these guys poop these out overnight, but they don't work THAT fast lol.
anyway... no shoulder buttons on the JXD = fail
Like I said, it takes years to develop a handheld which the external casing is a critical part of which is something Ben Heck and any other portable console modder is not creating themselves in their living rooms with a blowtorch and some Bondo. By creating, i'm referring to the actual PCB design and all the work into making the machined mould the plastics get poured into(on top of everything else). That's all I meant by that.There are a multitude of reasons it takes years to develop a handheld gaming device.

How does that have anything to do with the quote? Just for your information, when I say "case" I mean, literally, a case. As in a plastic enclosure for a handheld device, nothing more, nothing less.

By the way, welcome to the board lugaidster.![]()
I have.How many here have secured the 512mb edition i will edit the list with your user name this will help people know if they can still purchase one or too late lets get a head count.
Yes an exclusive albeit eccentric mens club thick with cigar smoke, heady with the odour of brandy and frequented by women of the night!Now we need SONY and Red Baron and maybe hakmanplayer to join the 512MB club![]()
