Hands on with the GP2X Wiz

Our GP2X Wiz finally arrived and, although we've literally only had this Linux-powered handheld in our grubby mitts for an hour, we wanted to give you our first impressions. You may recall the original GP2X, a Korean-manufactured portable media player and retro gaming box - well, the GP2X Wiz bumps it up a few notches in power and design.

For the specs, the Wiz now has a 533MHz ARM CPU (up from 200MHz on the original) and 1GB of flash (up from 64MB). Most importantly for us, the fiddly little thumbstick-D-pad oddity of the GP2X has been replaced by a proper, normal, what-everyone-on-the-planet-expects cross-shaped pad. Given that the GP2X and its Wiz successor are targeted at retro gaming and emulation, a proper D-pad is a must. Annoyingly, the buttons on the right are also shaped like a D-pad (but they are separate buttons, as opposed to being joined in the middle), which makes them a bit too close together for our tastes.
