where can i pay now? so i'll have it first!

[John Lomax]

Good point moose. The more options the end user has to purchase the game the better. I am not against the idea of a compact flash version of argentum, as judging by some of the comments its quite a good and unique idea. For me, like moose said ill just buy from the net and install onto my card.<br><br>Maybe shervin etc should start speaking to sandisk etc about some costing for a 6 meg cf card in bulk.<br><br>John

[Moose or Chuck]

yes this is my idea

[Dan East]

John, if you guys get some quotes on those cards in bulk I would really appreciate you sending the info along. I think that would be a pretty cool way to sell Windows CE software in retail stores. <br><br>Dan East

does anyone have any contacts at sandisk? or anywhere else we can by the mem cards in bulk? i would rather have them already put argentum on the card before shipping it to us to ship to our customers.

I have found one fault in the idea, which the post above sorta talks about. How do you plan to get the game on the card? will poor carp or fredrik spend hours playing with thier cf reader? Or would you have the company put it on there for you, which would mean $. Also, wouldnt this push back the release of Argentum? Dont get me wrong, I think its a good idea, but its a little late isnt it? by time you get the ball rolling with sandisk or whoever the game could have already been out.

[Moose or Chuck]

why not buy in bulk from pricewatch.com and copyin it on there could be done quicker if u had a usb hub and put like 4-6 cf readers on at once. Just a thought.

ok, this card idea is quite good in thinking of a way to make the ppc's more game or software popular to the masses, to make it a kind of game(public)boy-like thing.<br>but i think u forgot all about the background. u would need a copy-company to copy soft on many cards, u would need a distributor to bring the cards to all the stores and even in foreign stores. and this distributor should even be so stupid to take all the risk in case those many cards woun't be bought. what then?<br><br>with selling the game by downloading will not need any other persons then the makers of the game. they just set up links on thier site and try to find a proper creditcard billing company.<br>or maybee by online ordering a cd-rom with loads of additional stuff on it, like making off or so or big rendered scenes by john would be nice and may be limited and very special too!!!!

Sure, you'll get the best making of you've ever seen: 100 hours real video of Carpe and Fredrik sitting in front of their computers - amazing!

[Moose or Chuck]

I hope everyone remembers that this CF card idea was mine. Or atleast I talked about it first, I don't know if other people had the same thought...

[Moose or Chuck]

ummm moose it was my idea.

[Paul]

it was everybodys idea, who was the first to mention it doesnt matter...

[sickman2o0o]

making of or more: <br>i was taling about scetches, ideas, big rendered screens, may be unreleased material. etc.

[suchiaruzu]

...and the fabulous "Making Of" Fredrik did with his webcam all the time. You know, he's got a 40 GIGs-HD, otherwise he couldnt have stored it there in order to compress it for the CD. It will be 29.99 USD. You can pay via creditcard @ , the CD and a free Ionside-T-Shirt will be sent to you 2 or 3 days after you've paid.<br>[color=3366ff]~~~~~~~~~~~~~THIS IS A JOKE~~~~~~~~~~~~[/color]

Moose, great minds think a like. I thought of the card idea back in May and told Carp and Fredrik about it. But when you let the cat out of the bag I thought better to discuss it. <br><br>I have found that usually with a good idea there are at least 2-5 other people thinking about the same thing. Almost like a collective consciousness. <br><br>Anyways, remember there is almost no way we can do the cards in August. However, we could come out with a card version of Argentum with more features and levels a couple months later. Then we can see how it goes.<br><br>-Shervin
