This is gonna blow the PSP out of the water!
Imagine takin pictures with a digi camera and uploading them to your x2, then from there takin them anywhere (ie. Computer or TV or just leaving them on the x2).

It has dual CPU's, 64MB of Ram, and the potential to play PSX/n64 games on it! Not only play them on the LCD screen, but also on your TV! Im hoping for bluetooth support or anyother WiFi support just to take it to another level.

The ONLY thing that would make this platform better would be upgradeable hardware, then it would put a nice dent into the laptop population! Personally id pay more for a fully customizable (sp) unit with endless potential.... Just an idea for the GP creators ;)

I love the way this company is heading and ive been telling a lot of people about their new unit and hopefully boost their sales. With the right amout of money they will have good capitol for their next platform, which I can't wait for!

Keep it up guys 110%

well like i said before would it be worth buying x2 if i already have a psp 1.5 with homebrew?

[Blaze RT]

yes, there is so much more support for this new unit and it hasnt even been released yet!

IMHO sell the PSP while it still has a resale value :p I see the x2 dominating the market here shortly :D

::EDIT:: Infact, if you were to take the PSP to a pawn shop today you should easly get 180 bucks for it which will cover your x2 ;)

[poison2003]

well i gues u have a good point i think ill sell it

Exactly how programmable is it really?
Yes, it's linux based, but exactly how much power do we have over it? Can we completely wipe the onboard OS and put in a recompiled version that would take out stuff we wouldn't use and perhaps features we would code for ourselves like SD WiFi (http://www.pricegrabber.com/search_getprod.php?masterid=1089878) support?


I had also asked if there was a full review and whether or not it allowed for AC adapters and both questions were answered here (http://www.lik-sang.com/news.php?artc=3708).
