Are there any FAQs people would like to see written? What are the questions that come up time and time again? I wrote the unofficial Frodo one just because it's a bit more complicated than some of the other emulators. Can you guys help me brainstorm on some good topics to write FAQs on?

I think there are already FAQs about "your first day with your GP32" and "moviepark" ... those are two common threads around here. What else can we write to save ourselves from running around in circles.

An MP3 faq would be good.

Be sure to dispel the rumor of the gp32 being only able to play 128kb/s files.
 
I've decided to work on a general GP32 FAQ for the time being. I really couldn't imagine the MP3 one being longer than a paragraph or two.
