I don't want to give out any information that could compromise my unique hardware design until it begins selling. So for now don't worry about what Pocket PCs this will or won't work with. ;)

I suppose these are only hacks for unsupported games (ie all of them) but there should be a way to satisfy most of the games stylus' needs.

Integration into PocketHAL would be very cool, and would definitely get recognition for both products.

Dan, if you made/manufactured this, people could really start catching on to PPC gaming, thus benefitting the entire PPC developing community. Go go go!

PPCs have such gaming power what with all the emulation that is possible. Its going to waste with all these stupid companies. What we need is a zodiac type device. Somthing that looks and functions like a regular ppc but has superior gaming capabilities. All we need to do this is that new gamepad connector. If I were in the PDA business I'd have done it a LONG time ago. I cant believe its not been done yet. It seems like these companies just love to not listen to their customers. Can we get a flipcase? not a chance. So can we get a gamepad? No way in hell.

Can't wait to try this! ON the current Asus A620/A716, only two buttons are really usable for fighting, can't wait to give a try to Guilty Gear and others with full six buttons heaven, and a real gamepad for once :D

I'd buy one. I've been looking aroud the FPSEce website, for info on a PS-PPC bridge, for a while. Nice to see someone is actually doing it.

HURRY UP I SIMPLY CANNOT WAIT. It will make gaming on the tosh e405/e800 much better.

So..... I guess this little project didnt work out? Its amazing that after so many years no-one has made a gamepad for pocket PC's

For reviews and a purchase link, although, sadly, not for Dan's.

Yeah but that one looks like it would be almost impossible to use. And also it doesnt fit the Axim x50v.

I really wouldn't call taking it apart and resoldering wires as the definition of fitting it.
