Just received a email from GPH.

They let us know they are going to produce a limited GP2X F-300.
It is going to be 20.000 units...



Some more pics can be found HERE

Not sure this is if this is what I am looking for wink.gif

Will it actually be the Vocamaster or will it say GP2x F300 and be in English etc? I think I will probably stick with my normal Wiz but I would like to own it for collect-ability purposes tongue.gif.

I'm gonna be kinda pissed if it runs better. What are the specs?
(Nevermind, it runs off batteries, hah, totally not worth it.)

The specifications are the same as the Wiz. It uses the same hardware but inside a GP2x F200 form-factor and the one pictures is a Vocamaster which has been retailing with the Wiz hardware for quite some time I believe. No one has measured the power draw of the Wiz yet. It's entirely possible, if unlikely, that the Wiz sucks less power than the GP2x and so could yield a better battery life than the F200 does.

It will also of course have a larger screen.

Heh sorry wink.gif

Well it just the same as the Wiz and will have English yes.
But if it stays vocamaster? Don't know.

I think the Wiz is a better option then this one... It is smaller and has a built in battery...
And looks better wink.gif

I would take that for bigger LCD (which I'd expect to be landscape, eliminating all tearing issues).

The vocamaster is a language learning tool to teach Korean people English.

I wonder if they're just trying to get rid of GP2X parts they have for some reason.

I wish they could have fixed some of the GP2X F200's flaws in a "hybrid" version. Give it a better dpad, move the USB and power jacks to the bottom, use a Li-Ion battery, give it a stylus holder... really this is kinda lame. Feels more like a mod someone did than a professional product. It sucks that you have to make so many sacrifices to get the compromise of having a bigger landscape screen and better buttons.

The Vocamaster has a F200 form factor and has been, and will remain, selling for a long time. I doubt it is these parts that are the reason.
