RAD.  Unfortunately, I'm probably not going to be back in Germany until spring 2011 but I'd LOVE to play or at least attend one of these as a spectator!

Got my solid hot pink yesterday!  heart  And kitsch was dead on when he said they are chipmusic.org pink.  Very awesome.  Many thanks.

OK, I'll say it before someone else does: hmmm looks like you could easily fit a piggy->midi INSIDE that enclosure, too!!!  And an arduinoboy.  And a dingoo.  And some rubbers.  big_smile

Deal.  Lucky for you I'm an admin and I can even hook you up with silent edits of your spelling mistakes.  wink

After fucking up a bunch on some backlight mods... I have some cases and back PCBs.  Ideally, I'd LOVE to trade them for a working front PCB, but if not, I'll send them to whomever wants them for the cost of shipping.

Great news!  flashbob is the BOMB!

Pink ordered regardless of what it may do to further perpetuate rumors that I'm Jose Torres.  wink

Right on.  But I bet if you asked those people who use the rare Amigas if they could have something that functions and sounds just as good as the A600's and A1200's, but is wayyy easier to find, they'd be all over it.  MIDI working *OK* on the gp2x is no reason to argue that another, better option shouldn't be pursued. 

As far as a backup for my gp2x, I'd love to see windows piggy MIDI perfected before any other console, though I'm not sure it will ever happen.  Marc's tried his darndest and it's still pretty iffy.

It's not that they aren't being made, it's that they aren't being made and I'm pretty sure there are several THOUSANDS fewer gp2xs out there than PSPs or Gameboys.  Maybe MILLIONS.  So for everyone that breaks or goes to an owner that will NEVER sell it, it hurts our team that much more. 

Put yourself in a remote location where you're playing a gig.  Your Game Boy/PSP dies.  How easy will it be for you to get a replacement ASAP?  What about a gp2x?

And sure, like you said the PSP doesn't support MIDI... yet.  That's kinda what people are hoping for here, no?

All $$$ talk aside, gp2x are no longer manufactured and are few and far between compared to how many PSPs are out there.  Continuing to put all our eggs in the perpetually vanishing gp2x basket is just asking for trouble.

Renewable resources, people!

edit: fwiw i don't even have a psp and all of my eggs are in the gp2x basket like no one else!  wink
