GP2X F200 Questions

I should be receiving a GP2X F200 in the mail any day soon and was wondering if any of you have one. I wanted to get a power supply as well at some point. I looked at the two websites that GP2X.com list as sources in the US. www.gp2xstore.com is out of stock and www.dynamism.com doesn't even sell them. I was thinking that as long as the voltages are correct it may be possible to get a power supply not specifically designed for the GP2X from somewhere else. Does anybody know of other places to buy GP2X stuff in the US? Has anybody else used an alternative power supply?

I am going to be using it mostly for the emulators but will probably try other stuff too. Any recommendations?

Also, I see that you can buy the TV-out cable but do you have to have the cradle in order to use it or can it plug straight in to the F200?

    You can use a standard transformer that has the same voltage and amperage (amp output on the transformer can be higher but not lower).

    I have the TV out and you dont need the cradle.

    Mine is not an F200 but I doubt they changed it on the newer model because presumably its the same tv out cable.

    Ah, thanks. Glad you don't need that cradle. I had heard that it doesn't fit too well. I will have to try and find a transformer from somewhere.

    So what are the best emulators I should try for Spectrum, Megadrive, Amiga etc?

    See the emu thread for the speccy one...GP2xspectrum I think its called. DrMD AND Picodrive for the megadrive are the ones I use, Outcast is the Atari ST emu, Vice c64, Amiga is uae4all ...not really messed with that one much as I dont think the speed is there yet,

    Do a search on GP2x also on youtube for some ideas of what to run etc.

    and here ill pm you a link I use most for files/games/emus etc incase it breaks the rules.

    Thanks for all of that. All I need now is the flipping machine to turn up!
