Hi iam thinking about buying a Gp2x, but iam a little confused because i have heard that there will a be newer version comeing out soon :confused: .
Do you think i should wait for the newer version to come out or buy it now?

Order from http://gbax.com

The new version wont have any major hardware changes, the nearest change will be the joystick cap (possible complete component change [unconfirmed] ) . Others will be in 6-12 mths time when they cant source the LCD screen and NAND memory anymore.

Will the one with the new cap be released any time soon? Or will that just be in 6-12 months?

If You Can Wait 12 Months, Then Probably You Shouldn't Buy It At All ;) Since We Don't Know If They Will Change The Hardware. If You Want To Get It, Buy It Now!

Hey, don't try to scare me away now that I've already purchased it! ;)

But I already ordered and received the batteries, and the SD card is already on its way to me.

I think the design is much better than any other kind of handheld available! The size is just perfect, the weight is just perfect and the temperature is nice 'n warm :D
