Hi all

Well it's playing AVI's (backups of course ;P ) seems to do that pretty 
well. The NES emulator seems to work but is sluggish ( only on  version 
1 there should be an update at some point ) MP3/OGG... should work but 
didn't listen to anything unfortunately... He did get Quake running on 
it which looked pretty cool. We didn't manage to get into the shell to 
change anything but then again we didn't try very hard.

Everything seemed to run off a SD card and the other thin I noticed was 
the standard ear phone jack. The button take a bit of guess work but I 
think after a little practice you could figure out what thier supposed 
to do.

It's seems pretty sweet for the price but cosmetically it isn't as 
pretty as a PSP but then again it isn't a PSP... on some level I'm sure 
that made sense I think... maybe ..

Kurt
