I've seen most places are saying that the GP2X is USB 2.0 High speed... but I've been skimming through the MagicEye docs reading up on what I'll have to play with if/when I start doing a bit of devving and according to the docs we've got USB 1.1 not 2.0...

so does anyone know whether GPH have made changes to this to make it USB 2.0 or are we actually still stuck with 1.1 like with the GP32?

thanks :)
 
Well, it seems like there's a chip missing next to the usb connector, and since SoC solutions normally connect the usb directly to the port, I'd say that's probably a USB2.0 controller chip, and they are not using the one in the MMSP2.
 
Well thats good then, means I probably wont bother getting a card reader then... just wasn't liking the thought of filling up a 1Gb card at USB1.1 speeds ;)

thanks for that Squidge, looks like developing for the GP2X should be a nice steep learning curve with the extra CPU and chips, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on it and the SDK and having lots of fun :D
