I got my GP2X about a month ago. The headphone socket is loosely soldered and the joystick fell off and went missing after I'd only had it for a week or so
I bought mine off the gbax.co.uk website- it came with a 1-year guarantee so I'm presuming I will be able to return it for a replacement. Does it matter that I've lost the joystick?
If I get a replacement, I presume it will have the latest firmware installed but has the hardware been improved too? Has the headphone socket issue been resolved and is the joystick more firmly stuck now? Have any other improvements been made to the hardware since the first batch i.e the screen?
If I could make one small improvemt to the GPX2 it would be the addition of an extra sliding switch (just like its power switch) which would turn the screen on/off for when yr using it as a music player and you want to put it in yr pocket. As it stands I would have to have one end (the end with the select button on it) sticking out of whichever pocket and be careful that nothing comes into contact with it or else the screen comes back on. I suppose this could be solved by using a key combination to turn the screen on/off instead of just pushing select.
Is there a musepack (.mpc) player for the GPX2? Any chance of seeing mpc support built into a future firmware?
Thanks!
