GP2X Mk1 Vs Mk2

[GernotFrisch]

Since EvilDragon is about to give away a few MK1 devices for a really great bargain price:http://forum.gp2x.de/viewtopic.php?t=4509
So, I guess I'll be confronted with this device quite soon. What are the differences - especially from a programmers point of view?

Nothing really, except that the screen has slightly different brightness/contrast, may have "scanline effect" (depending how old it is), and many MK1s are better for overclocking than most MK2s.

Oh, and also some had reversed stereo (maybe that's just the First Edition ones?). The joystick also has diagonal bias (as in the diagonals are more sensitive than the oridinals), whereas the MK2 has ordinal bias (they simply physically rotated the stick assembly 45 degress so they could use the same stick).

Am I right in thinking that mk2 can power usb flash drives and such and mk1 cant?

Matter of fact I am selling it, comes with Nintendo DS pouch, w/batteries and charger, and 2GB SD card, and a USB 2.0 Card reader that looks like a thumb drive.

PM me, $150 if you want it.
