Well, makes sense considering everything that's been going on over the past month or so. I know that if I hadn't already pre-ordered, I would have probably decided to wait it out until the "official" release (I'm not going to cancel, since I suspect that if we all did, there would be *no* official release). As it is, I was going to get one for my younger brother for Christmas, and I've decided against it (he's not as big a gadget freak as I amwas thinking of ordering from them originally so glad i didn't![]()
They are sorta harsh but they have a point, but i really don't mind some early problems... it makes me a more HARDCORE fan!
Not sure what 'capping' means, but I watched a 1.5 hour movie last night without a problem - it was converted using PocketDivXEncoder.Practically many videos are not playable without capping them.
Didn't think Xvid was supported anyway, and the sync problems sounds like bad encoding, nothing to do with the GP2X.There are reports of Xvid playing too fast, and DivX sound not in sync with video.
The unit draws about 500ma. With cheap 1000ma batteries you're gonna get 2 hours, with half decent 2100ma batteries I'm getting over 4 hours. Plus it's a firmware problem which will be sorted.There is a battery problem, 2 hours battery-life with standard batteries only.
This is a 'hardware fault'? I've never seen an advert including a power supply or a charger. This is just padding the list.There is no power supply or charger included with the GP2X.
Fair enough.Stereo jack sinks on some units, because of poor soldering.
Don't seem to be on my unit, maybe I've got bad ears?The speakers are mono instead of stereo.
As above. I've seen one forum post claiming this, but no confirmation.Headphone channels are switched, left is not left.
I'm 6'1" and have pretty large hands, they aren't a problem for me. Tested by a gorilla?The action buttons are too small. Your thumb can cover all four.
'Large' is subjective. I've never owned a handheld gaming unit before and it's not proving to be a problem for me, but I had no expectations.There is a large joystick deadzone (that can be fixed with a "mod" according to a distributor).
Fair enough, but not on my unit. Maybe just a small number?Uneven color distribution on the screen and other LCD problems.
Fair enough, but that's only going to get better.Long boot time (28 seconds).
As above.Compatibility problems with some brands, types or sizes of Flash Cards.
So it's been fixed but still makes it into the software faults list?USB Connection and incompatibility problems with Windows XP (apparently fixed with latest Firmware).
So, can anyone confirm that GPH will actually be doing a 2nd version to fix any bugs?
