this has probably come up before but i might have found something.
This datasheet is for the gp2x's cpu's. I am not a that tecnical and so.
Please look at it. I havent looked at it that much.

Datasheet
 
Er, sorry for my bad engrish..

That datasheet isn't exactly the gp2x cpu's one, it's the gp2x dev board's one. The dev board isn't specifically made for the gp2x, it's a bit generic for dvd players, car computers, things like that, and so it has these features built-in. It's possible that the gp2x has that, but I doubt it. Also note one thing: in these sheets says that the cpu with 2D, divx, etc extensions is the 920, the MAIN processor, and in the gp2x the graphic processor is the 940... I think Gamepark will put generic 940 and 920 cpu's without these extensions.
 
That's certainly the correct datasheet for the gp2x cpu, but I think it's been posted on here before (well, I first saw it a long time ago, but I may have just found it with google). Yes, the MMSP2 has a lot of functionality that isn't used in the gp2x, but it will still be there just not connected to anything.
 
it seems like the sdk is late... can you use this for a pre sdk type thing?
Like if you want to start programming before it has released or making a emulator for windows?
 
If you want to start coding before hardware is out then just use SDL and test it on windows. With a bit of luck your application should then be able to be recompiled for the gp2x with little or no extra work. If you want to hit the hardware directly though then you'll have to wait for the hardware to be released, then figure out how to do it ;).
 
There's no need for an emulator - the GP2X uses SDL, and SDL is available for Windows and Linux as well. If you want to emulate the full hardware - we need more than just the datasheet - we'll need the GP2X full firmware too, which I don't think GPH are going to just give away, so someone will have to dump it when the machine are available to buy.
