Maybe i didn't explain it clearly enough: You CAN use your CF sleeve with the Zeta gamepad. Check it out here:

While 400mhz Xscale PPCs are definitely coming, they are still a little while off and haven't even officially been released in the Far East yet. They will almost definitely be able to run PQ2 at a playable speed, along with other improvements. But do you really think you can wait that long.... :)

Maybe I din't explain myself clearly enough I rarely play games while it's in the cradle and I usually play them whilst commuting so I don't think the Zeta's right for me. Plus after shipping and so on it would cost me about £50 which is about the price of a 128mb cf card off ebay so I'll just wait for the Xscale ppcs. I'm willing to wait quite a while but will they coming out this year?
Also I heard that the Xscale can theoretically be overclocked to 800mhz or even 1ghz. Does ne1 know the overclocking capabilites of the Xscale processor (at least theoretically if not practically)?

I have also heard that Xscale PPCs can be overclocked to 1ghz, by somebody who has mentioned it a couple of times on this forum. I certainly hope this is possible, although it seems unlikely that Intel would release a chip that officially runs at less than half that speed. I would like to know where he/she got that information, and if it could be confirmed. Also, the first iterations of the Xscale cpu will run at 300mhz (see the Fujitsu LOOX & its clones), while later versions will run at 400mhz.

I'm sorry to hear about your controller options :( . I only re-suggested the Zeta gamepad because i thought your only concern was using your CF sleeve. Maybe we both weren't clear enough! :)
