brown bread is brown bread..ive never heard it used that way before though, i assume it means "good".

I think it may have something to do with the fact that white bread is practically devoid of any nutrients and 'brown' bread (if it's 100% whole wheat) is much better.

(Back OT)

Yep, even Evil Dragon uses the great DaveC cap, as shown on Giga TV ;)

Maybe I should change my ad to say "As seen on TV" :)

Time to complain to your postal service I guess. I don't know what it is but I have had other boxes totally mutilated going to Italy. Those caps are extremely tough too. What do they do over there? They must have run over it with a truck or purposely cut it. I don't know why they would do that though.

As far as I am aware Brown bread is slang for dead and I live in the Uk too

Still whatever works for you!

I feel like I'm in Austin powers with all this 'Mockney' slang

:lol:
 
Got mine today!
That's quite a difference. My wife tested it this morning and was pretty happy ("It doesn't hurt your thumbs like the other one, it's faster is it?"), the kids were blissfully unaware and carried on regardless.

Gave it a test on "whacky penguin" this evening and managed to rack up 52 points so that's a definite improvement for me.

Thanks

Obviously, the Italian postal service is ful of PSP fanboys:

"Hey Gino, theres another one of those gp2x caps here"
"I'll get the sledgehammer, teach them not to buy a PSP"

Just got mine today onl took about 4-5 days i live in England , By the way DaveC Great Stick , i can actually enjoy my nostalgia now, Wicked mate :)
 
4 days thts pretty swift all the way from the US of A, wen i order things from there (DVD's etc) it usually takes at least a week but then i do live out in the sticks.
 
So what are the measurements of this thing? How wide is it?

I wonder if some of the GP2X retailers would consider giving their customers the option of adding this to their order? Although it would mean a lot more work for DaveC - I don't know if he'd manage it. :ph34r:

Italian post totally sucks.

The worst I've had over here was a box of christmas presents from my mum for the in laws that had been opened, had anything small enough to fit in a pocket stolen and all the cards searched for cash. They then stuffed all the packaging back in and sealed it with "Poste Italiane security check" tape.

Bastards.

I've also had countless stuff go missing from online orders. There's a very cheap contact lens supplier in canada that will only deal with me through courier services now. My subscription to PC Gamer UK makes it through about two out of every three months, but even then it's often late (and I mean late as in the january issue arriving three days after the february one).

This is really the only thing that is making me wonder if it's worth sending off for one of your caps... I'm not too confident that I'd actually receive it.
