Engadget's Article

More info

Oh, and did I mention that it's real, and not vaporware?

PS - doesn't actually say that it's Linux powered. This is V-Tech, I was thinking LeapFrog.

actually, if this (or the other pad thingy) are in any way hackable, they might make for cheap I/O devices for various projects. An amusing find!

Nice find Chad

V-Tech just kicked in, yo.

I assume the Rubber ducky must launch vi, the Purple fish must launch emacs.

Actually, a LeapFrog version of this - running Linux, and the better (looking?) game controls would be nice to have.

(I actually have a Didj - hoping the homebrew community materializes now that there's a custom SD loader - got it on woot for $25 shipped.)

 

[kuru]

Does the red baron know of this?

 

[atomicthumbs]

Such A Deal!!!

I hope the same thing :rolleyes: Hacking alone on the Didj starts to get boring.

Does it have a compiler onboard?

Chad looks like something out of Bo Selecta!

 

[craigix]

That likeness is uncanny.

 

[ashdjones]

It's like everything i've ever dreamed of! Just needs more buttons.

One button? Seriously? When will these bloody corporations stop making consoles with crippled controls?!

 

[OrR]

That's awesome! How do you load games onto this thing?

 

[mindlord]

Can I play Halo or Half-life on it? </sarcasm>
