    The Cradle

    These pics have been floatingaround for at least 2-3 weeks now, now to take the wind out of craigxs announcement. I was looking at this http://www.gpnewbie.com/gp2x/media/bob1.jpg at least that long ago. As for those with the dev bob you could purchase or request an eclosure from these guys...

    Power Requirements For 1.8 Hdd

    Sorry I didn't realize that I had forgotten to put this link http://www.hitachigst.com/tech/techlib.nsf...60_PC_v7_sp.pdf in my last post about the drive I purchased... Small diffs mentioned but it appears there is an ide drive with similar specs though not sure how to identify it. Toxic_d

    Bob Poll "what Do You Want?"

    Possible yes but I seriously doubt the is enough demand for it. Besides it is outside my needs and therefore would be rather low on my priority list. Good idea though. As for wireless I am in the process of sourcing a cheap reliable solution but I feel the need for it would be nil without...

    Power Requirements For 1.8 Hdd

    nubie, the hitachi model drive c4k60 is available in the two types that I mentioned ZIF and ide (44 pin) and the ide is pin compatible with the 2.5" drives. As I understand the cf is a spec on its own and is infact a smaller drive. The FFC I have yet to run across, but the pcmcia and the 2.5 I...

    Power Requirements For 1.8 Hdd

    For those who are interested here is a link to the spec sheet for the hitachi that I will be using.... Its only a 20 gig but it was cheap and small cheap being under $30 (won on ebay) new. Toxic_d

    The hdd was an after thought of the poll... I just picked up a hitachi 1.8" 20gig for less than $30 shipped. I'm leaning toward the 1.8 size as the power requirements can be even less but would leave it up to the purchaser to supply their own drive as far as that goes. The more I hear the more...

    3 Cell Battery Test

    nubie those are exactly my thoughts as this was the direction I was headed. The divits are all we would need... I think that a 1.8 hdd an s-video and two usb ports would be ideal and a second 3.5 jack for the audio out as well as a battery mod would be in order at this level. Toxic_d

    Power Requirements For 1.8 Hdd

    I was wondering how many would fork out the cash for a 1.8 hdd vs a 2.5 hdd to extend the batter life in the bob? My personal bob will have a 20 gig hitachi 1.8 hdd built in. 4200 rpm will be more than fast enough for the usb 1.1 connection the host supports. BTW I wonder if cr8tive Leo has...

    Bob Poll "what Do You Want?"

    woogal, like I said sorry for the format of the poll. I didn't see any options for a checkbox poll. nubie is right about the ease of doing both component and s-video as it is just the addition of a jack and a capacitor. I was just concerned with the size issue for the bob and am trying to...

    Bob Poll "what Do You Want?"

    yeah sorry for the radio button options instead of check boxes... if there are other things vote again if the system will let you!! the hub with tv out was exactly what I was going for powered byt the way via batteries as well. BTW the 3.5 jack would/could be either s-video or composite and...

    Bob Poll "what Do You Want?"

    This a obviously a wishlist for a bob... let me know what would make you happy as I am designing a bob for my own personal use and am thinking of possibly making more if I can do so reasonablely. If you have any other ideas feel free to post them as well. (ie size requirements and the likes)...
