guys go ahead, buy it and tell me if the quality has improved or not :) from the picture i can see they still use the same case/design, so it's probably average quality again...

I have a MK1 and the case design is good. The only problem I had was with the headphone jack. I was able to fix that but the problem was fixed with the MK2 release. Now this looks to be even better than the others. The one and only gripe I have with it is the fact that the D-Pad is actually 4 separate buttons. Normally it would work like a psx controller d-pad, but this GP2X one is not on an x and y axis like the psx controllers, so I don't know how good the diagonals will be.

This looks awesome but I am going to what for the first reviews to see with its looking like.

I like my mk2 pretty well already. I would'nt mind to have an f200 as I will be able to use this great device for years to come. I hope the gp2x community continues and all but if all developement stopped I could find enough emulation already to make this a worthwhile device for me but I see this as a tough sell to someone who already owns the mk2. The Craigonater I believe will happen regardless and is looking to be something I think a lot of people are anticipating including myself.
