[23:47:14] <nn> echelon: yo
[23:47:19] <nn> looking for a cheap handheld to port my OS to ;)
[23:47:20] <echelon> i got mine for $8.. brand new.. in shrinkwrap
[23:47:21] *** T0mW is now known as T0mW`gone
[23:47:21] <echelon> can't beat that ^_^
[23:47:24] <nn> echelon: nice
[23:47:27] <echelon> but you do have to wait approximately a month
[23:47:34] <echelon> because i used the amazon credit card $30 rebate on first purchase
[23:47:42] <nn> oh
[23:47:43] <nn> screw that
[23:47:45] <echelon> lol
[23:47:46] <echelon> yeah, that's the cheapest i could find
[23:47:47] <echelon> the $37 one
[23:47:48] <echelon> buynow is the retailer, yeah?
[23:47:51] <nn> no, its auction site but new-in-box
[23:47:53] <echelon> eh, just get it from amazon
[23:47:55] <echelon> same price
[23:47:55] <nn> 37$ with shipping from across town
[23:47:56] <nn> right but this will get here by friday morning:P
[23:47:57] <echelon> hmm.. i don't recall how much i paid for shipping
[23:48:02] <echelon> i think i got the super saver shipping thing
[23:48:09] <echelon> alright, go ahead
[23:48:23] <nn> yea this includes shipping for 37$ and is here in town
[23:48:25] <nn> just wasnt sure what a good price was
[23:48:28] <echelon> so.. you did lfs or what's that other thing called
[23:48:31] <echelon> oh yeah
[23:48:33] <echelon> diy-linux
[23:48:45] <nn> no, wrote my own os
[23:48:49] <echelon> oh
[23:48:49] <echelon> ..why?
[23:48:50] <nn> for a phone i was working on
[23:48:57] <echelon> cool.. the zipit has a mic port ya know?
[23:48:58] *** _switchcat_ has quit IRC
[23:48:58] <nn> then ended up using it in other embedded projects when the company who was contracting it went stupid
[23:49:01] <echelon> but i can't seem to find a mic with the same connector though
[23:49:05] <nn> hmm
[23:49:06] <nn> ive been PSP hacking lately
[23:49:07] *** switchcat has joined #zipit
[23:49:09] <nn> built a keyboard for the psp slim- needing to add a pass-through connector for the video cable, however
[23:49:20] <echelon> i've been sidetracked with voip stuff so i haven't had a chance to mess with my zipit
[23:49:24] <echelon> speaking of keyboards..
[23:49:26] <echelon> the keypad on the z2 sucks
[23:49:27] <nn> kind of debating hacking up a driver for multiplexing inputs on the serial port to do a touch layer and keyboard at the same time, but school has been raping my free time
[23:49:32] <echelon> it makes clicks for every key press
[23:49:38] <nn> from the speaker or keys?
[23:49:47] <echelon> keys
[23:49:49] <nn> gah
[23:49:51] <echelon> it's horrible
[23:49:57] <nn> so i might be better off getting an original zipit and doing a backlight hack?
[23:49:57] <echelon> why couldnt they make rubber keys
