"GP32"

It's handheld, the size of a GBA. it takes Smart media cards. It has emulators for just about every pre 32 bit system going, as well as some for the GBA.

And I'm getting one.

So what should I do with my 128MB of space?
Go for a SNES collection?
Mix it up with some Megadrive classics?
Get a good set of NES roms?
Fill it up with obscure commodore games?

Advice, my friends, is needed. Although the Doom port is a cert.

As far as I know, there isn't a document *writer* - only a reader (which I think supports MS Word docs).

There is probably a writer in development, but without touch-screen capability or a keyboard attachment, is there any point in using your GP32 for writing docs?

One question for all GP32 owners - I have a multiboot GP32 - On Wind-ups I can't seem to save my configurations (Icons, wallpaper settings etc.) It all just restarts when I turn the GP32 back on. Any idea how to get round this? (I've tried making Windups the auto default OS - no luck though)

What's this, a multiboot GP32? Sounds interesting.

You need to install wind-ups onto your SMC??

I just brought my gp32 for £70. hurray

Good point.

Don't think that works as Wind-Ups is a form of firmware. Not to worry though, I never use it - Pacrom is better.

So where did you get yours from DWB?

It was a spare gp32 one of the delvelopers had.

It overclocks and still has the screen cover on it.

So a pretty good deal if you ask me.
