[17:37:30] <unrest> good evening =)
[17:41:06] <unrest> has anyone tried to attach some usb device to the expansion port of a z2?
[18:12:23] *** wizs has joined #zipit

[18:45:46] *** asantoni has joined #zipit
[18:53:41] <g1powermac_PB> unrest: the usb that is brought out on the expansion port is usb device, not usb houst
[18:54:42] <unrest> which is not that good news..
[18:55:15] <unrest> do oyu know if someone (maybe tom walsh) has haced together some softmouse for the "arrow keys"?
[18:55:22] <unrest> s/oyu7you/
[18:55:48] <g1powermac_PB> supposedly there has been work on that
[18:56:46] <unrest> any results yet?
[18:57:12] <g1powermac_PB> not sure, as I'm not the guy who worked on it
[18:57:43] <unrest> who worked/works on it then?
[18:58:11] <g1powermac_PB> ask T0mW when he comes back online
[18:58:31] <unrest> k
[19:04:52] <GPSFan> g1powermac_PB: hey... happy 4th...
[19:05:14] <g1powermac_PB> ya, you too :-)
[19:06:17] <GPSFan> I found the box my original z2 came in. same UPC code, and same Product code Z2A. methinks the models are the same...
[19:10:53] *** wizs has left #zipit
[19:14:16] <unrest> is a z2 worth 90usd (including shipping to germany)?
[19:35:40] <GPSFan> unrest: my new z2 cost me $US38 including shipping from Amazon. it depends on how much shipping/import duties are for your location.
[19:36:04] <unrest> GPSFan, tax is +19%
[19:36:14] <unrest> shipping is around 27$
[19:36:31] <GPSFan> so that $US90 includes that 19% ?
[19:36:34] <unrest> amazon though doesn't ship it to germany
[19:36:49] <unrest> GPSFan, sadly not.
[19:37:38] <GPSFan> bummer. as to if it's worth it, if you reely want/need one, it's cheaper than it was 6 months ago by a lot.
[19:38:57] <GPSFan> 149 +27 + 19% six months ago. 90 +19% today.
[19:39:00] <unrest> well.. i bricked my z1 when i was trying to solder a sd socket into it
[19:39:10] <GPSFan> bummer.
[19:39:13] <unrest> albeit that it was pretty useful for me
[19:39:16] <unrest> indeed ;/
[20:00:55] <echelon> who asked for a console-based player yesterday?
[20:01:20] <echelon> that handled streaming audio
[20:01:26] <unrest> it certainly wasn't me
[20:01:36] <unrest> but theres only one answer: mp3blaster
[20:01:38] <unrest> (imho)
[20:02:12] <echelon> what's the size of the binary?
[20:03:05] <echelon> and i don't see support for audio streams as a feature
[20:06:08] <unrest> idk the size..
[20:06:16] <unrest> but iirc it does support streams
[20:06:35] <echelon> ok, cool
[20:09:33] <echelon> i just piped wget with mpg321
[20:09:49] <unrest> it worked?
[20:09:53] <echelon> yeah
[20:09:56] <unrest> lol
[20:09:58] <unrest> :)
[20:10:29] <unrest> if it works, write a script ;)
[20:10:45] <echelon> you have to get the direct link from the pls/m3u file though
[20:11:40] <unrest> grep/cut/awk it out
[20:12:11] <unrest> i'm off to bed.
[20:12:13] <unrest> good night
[20:12:16] <echelon> alright, g'night
