Well, I finally got home and unpacked mine. I put batteries in and it promptly died. The batteries are charging as I type this.... ahh, the agony!

Personally I think its far better than the PSPs. Its not perfect (a D pad would have been better IMHO)

Yeah, I don't like the joystick, but as far as joysticks go, it's o.k.
It's just that a d-pad would be so much better.

A D-pad would only be an improvement if it was a very, very good one (like Nintendo's). The PSP's D-pad is woeful, so one like that would be a big step backwards.
I'm quite pleased with the stick myself, but for those yearning for a D-Pad, try out DaveC's mod (also available from Evil Dragon).

Got mine a few days ago and have spent the time installing softwares, finding what doesn't work/what I did wrong, uninstalling, reinstalling, and pretty much enjoying every minute of it. This is a sweet little machine. I can't wait until I have more quality time to spend with it.

Great service from GP2X.co.uk, they even sent me an Xmas card with it.
First impressions are VERY good. Joystic is ace, way better than the thing on the PSP.
Anyway, it has to go back in the box until Xmas day.
Anyone in two minds about this thing, go and buy one. Its really is a great bit of kit.

Best way to find your *stable* max speed is to load up SquidgeSNES, overclock to a speed and play for 10+ minutes. If it crashes, go a bit lower, until you find your max. I'd start at 285mhz, not many seem to go higher than that these days.
A quicker/easier way is to get the latest cpu/lcd tweaker program and run its CPU test, which will write a logfile of what speed it finally crashed at. This, however will be higher than what your unit can stably play games at, e.g. it'll say 285mhz when you can really only go to 270mhz. So the first method is better.

I can vouch for that Conan - I have 2100s and they last a decent amount of time. I keep one set on charge all the time and this works fine for me.
