Gp2x Delay?

[wild_eyed]

so the first units are being beta tested, because there have been problems with the batteries, do ye think this will result in a delay? if not, any guesses on the release date for the preorders

 

[Digitalrat]

don't think so because gamepark resolved the problem

 

[barnesy]

I may be wrong, but I don't think that the fact that we're getting to hear about these problems means that the process is going any slower than it would do if we were told nothing. But maybe I'm just an optimist!

They're not tested because of problems, but for problems. And everything gets beta-tested, from socks to aeroplanes.

There were no battery problems, they just didn't fit battery connectors in the beta units. There are now units with battery connections.

beta-testing socks I'm in the wrong line of work!

I wear all your socks for a week before any of you have them. And I don't wash.



But, the GP2X will be late! The best things always are. Give them time to get it all 'just so'! And patience builds character; I should know as I've been waiting 46 years to make a funny joke. But one day, one day.....

[Jarska333]

Those are postponed, not delayed. But you current ones should run on AC-adapter power.

Plus Squidge is working on the SDK (Sock Development Kit), so we should have plenty to play with when they are released.

Aah theres a bug in my sock!

 

[Jarska333]

In my time as a PC hardware-enthusiast, I've learned, that RAID helps against bugs.

My mother has one of those allready. They tend to become quite warm, so overclocking may prove to be problematic.

 

[Yuglooc]

But are they also dual-cored?

 

[Jarska333]

I have tri-cored. Helps keep "the package" warm.

Though, one has to have extra long "sleeve", which ups the cost a little.

 

[Eolair]

What the heck are you guys talking about :blink: :lol:

 

[fishybawb]

The GP2sox. This delay is going to cause problems. I hope Gamepark aren't getting cold feet about the release, because I am due to it.

 

[Jarska333]

Perfect for christmas, though. One doesn't need socks on the side of ones fireplace. So maybe delay is a good thing?
