At least it doesn't claim mp4 playback. I saw a review in games tm 46 that claimed the 2x played mpeg4 and wmv

That's the most accurate review I've read. They did their homework.

nice review. The unit looks smaller in hand than I thought it to be. More pics would be nice though.

heh, I noticed that too. I was thinking "What the hell kind of monster hands does that guy HAVE?!"
Then I realised it's that dude from Big Fish! Has to be, hasn't it? ^_^

I thought I should mention that there is also new article about gp2x in megagames:

It starts with words: "Forget the PSP, disregard the DS"

Pity they seem to think it's a dual-core machine. . .

It is.
Isn't it?

Nope - any more than a PC with a graphics card is dual-core: Dual-core doesn't mean "it has two processors in it".
The GP2X's second processor is more of a co-processor. It doesn't have an MMU.

its a good review, at least they didnt just claim things like mp4/wmv and they actually used it and did their homework.
I liked it, and also "the GP2X is perfect as it is a lot more than a gaming platform - it’s a multifunctional entertainment device with more flexibility than a Russian gymnast."

An excellent review there, and by jove does that guy have huge hands.
If I were to be fussy, I'd point out that I've never seen diagonal lines on my MK2. But I'm not fussy, else I'd hate the GP2X an awful lot, so yay.

Isn't it one CPU with 920 and 940 cores? That isn't dual-core? Or do you mean the way they're connected isn't dual core?
I'm confused now. :blink:

Ignore that dope, read the page in my sig, it has a nice big picture of the MMSP2 layout. (the very first link that says MagicEyes)jmetal88 posted on Aug 7 2006 at 02:05 PM said:
Technically Linux doesn't see dual-cores, but they are there and a 3D engine on the second core has been demonstrated, also sound has been done on the second core (?) I think.

Alright, glad I've got my definition of dual core straight now! Pretty much what I thought it was. Thanks for pointing out those links.
