same reason people modded their xbox ... media and emulation.

don't need movies. watching something on a 2 inch screen does not thrill me. emulaiton would be good though.

modding into a pda would be usefull also.

Make sure you download the Windows Mobile or PalmOS ROM files then so you can flash them into the respective PDA's. Also, you might want to check the Garmin Flash Kit to add GPS capabilities. And there's a rumor that Lik-Sang will have the GSM/EDGE flash CD soon, to turn it into a phone.

Stealing NINTENDO games? Tsk. Go for the PSP at least. XD

purbeast--

are they working on something that combines the
code running capabilties of the ezpass with the memory capacity of the supercard so you only need one?

 

[FleshLight]

I'm too lazy to register. But what emulators are out there? Up to N64? Or just up to SNES?

O RLY?
There are rumors you can turn it into a TRANSFORMER d00d.
I am downloading the KitchenAid firmware because it will make a great mixer!!
With firmware, it can emulate ANY hardware. Like a GSM radio! Wow!
KitchenAide FTW! :disgust:

 

[waggy]

.. then you want Tapwave Zodiac. They are out of business, but supplies can be found. Palm OS PDA, handheld game system form factor, bluetooh, dual SD slots, 3.7" 320x480 screen, buttload of emulators (LJZ rulez!).

I'm going to have to look into this. I bought my son a DS and he doesnt use it much, if I can do GPS, emulation and PDA stuff on it I'm gonna swipe it from him!

nope, the DS is actually a gaming machine, and has games for it as well 😛

 

[tw1164]

The mini-sd cart sticks out that much!?!? Damn, I'm disappointed now.

 

[EKKC]

can the PSP idiots get out of this thread please?
i just scored a DSL today. and got MKDS and NSMB. i played my friends' PSP and I don't feel that "portable magic" at all. this feels right at home like the GB and GBA.

Yeah, I'm curious about movie quality myself. I bought one of those CF adapters for the DS that lets you play MP3's and video files. It was so so.

Can you post some screen shots? What file format are the movies in? Divx, mpeg?

DS is not powerful enough to do anything but a slideshow in DivX. Ideal formats are MPEG-1 and MPEG-2.
