Well, am I the only one who is happy. Now wait here me out, *covers head*
I don't want it as shiny as the psp but it needs some shine, like look at the ps2 controller, that has some shine. IMO there much to be improved on the finish, I don't want it psp shiny but something so it does not look like those old biege computers (but black of course).
Plus they are probaly just going to change the finish not the plastic so it would not be that dramatic.

Truth is that the white model was kinda shiny, of course not as much as PSP. I'd like the black model to be shiny like the white model of the craigx video.

Let's all just chalk this up to an unsubstantiated rumor ...

I hope they make it as shiny as the gamegear, That's pretty cool I think.

the gamegear is not 'shiny' like the psp, it's just plastic like the original concept drawings.

At worse I could stand if it were simply as shiney as the GP32.

Hello,
Button color will be different from the one that you saw on the pic.
We will make it more like a psp but the color will not be more like a dark grey
And this is not a final product.
Main menu will be gold orange color and the color will be changing when you click icons.
The silver one is not going to be selling.but we have plan to make another cases.
Since i have no idea who you are.i dont think i can be able to check out my email . ^^
email me again...
Thanks

just to add, maybe it may not be as reflective as a psp, but it seems that they are not so happy with the current grey/black finish and want to make it more psp like, so look into that however you want.
I think that means we will see a unit a little more well finished and smoothed out than the prototype black unit as another post on their site stated that they were unhappy with the finish on the black one shown in the latest pics.

I remember that post. I thought she was talking about changing the button colour.
anyone know if they are going to make a white model, like the one on the GBAX website, because the black and silver ones look horrible. I hope so, especially considering the white models shown seem to have the recently added volume buttons and are still on the GBAX website, now that is a freaking good colour.

unfortunatley, white is not going to happen as a colour straight out of the box although they have promised a range of cases (skins) at a later date in a range of colours.

With all this difference of opinion I can't help but think some people will be disappointed with the final finish.

i don't care what it looks like as long as i can fit a polishing cloth in the carry case for the screen and whatever else then i'll be happy.
i just hope it's not going to have the shiny psp crap. i understand if they wante to make it a bit shinier, but psp shiny is too much.
and yeah, i asked about possibilty of gph selling diff. color cases later on, and she said they plan to.
i guess it's not so bad.

It won't be PSP shiny. The PSP has clear plastic and is painted black from the back (reverse painted). [trivia]This technique was also used on old transistor radio dials [/trivia]. This clear top with black reverse paint is very prone to fingerprints etc.
The one on the GP2X won't be as bad as it is just shiny black plastic, not reverse painted clear. Those of you with Xboxes look at the center part where the power eject buttons are, it will be like that. Not as bad as PSP. I would have prefered matte but oh well no big deal. If they were going to go shiny, white would have been better as it doesn't show prints, oh well. I just want the damn thing already.
