iPAQ Button problem

[Solarix]

By now every knows of the iPaq's problem with buttons being used for simultanious input; that's why I choose the Casio E-125 over it. I wanted to know if the @migo 600, or the new HP 56x will/have the same problems?

I heard someone say the new HP's have no button problems at all. The @migo is limited by 3 button presses at a time. Diagonal is considered 2 button presses (i.e. Up-Right diagonally is pressing down Up and Down buttons). Therefore, if moving diagonal, u can only press one other button...like say a jump or shoot. if you press one direction, like say right...u could essentially run and jump or run and shoot etc etc. So its about halfway between the iPaq and the Casio. If you don't need more than 3 buttons at once, its great. But the HP's seem to be pretty awesome too except for the CFI only slot.<br>

But there is a adaptor, right?

[jongjungbu]

Mayhap so. I'm not sure if it's jury-rigged or if it's commercial. Anyone?

jesus christ, how many times ddo i have to say this? theres a fucking adapter for cf to cf2 available - has been since the FIRST jornadas were out! jeez...

[Luciano U. Werner]

Yes, the HP568 is the King now.

[jongjungbu]

Well, excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me, Paul. I don't have a jor nada so i don't keep up with them all that much.

[Solarix]

What is the difference between CF and CF2?<br>

[Paul]

pfft, thats not the point. the point is i say it every time you bring up the fact that jornadas are cf1 only and you all ignore it and say 'isnt there some kind of adapter available?' like idiots.

[jongjungbu]

This is the first time I brought it up though.

cf2 is a bit thicker than cf media... so essentially it can hold more (ie.. a microdrive is CF2, while most normal flash media is CF1)<br><br>so.. you need CF2 for the microdrive and most other CF devices such as wireless cf cards, etc..
