I do not wanna neck, but if i would get free flashcards to review with some friends i would be glad to share the insights!!
But i also think some people are un greatfull to the fact that sites like gbatemp took the evort in the first place!!
The slot 1 chart is going to be expended soon??(some updates on when maybe?)
I think that when you've had 20 flashcarts and had the pleasure to test like 50 roms on it each to make sure they work and save fine, maybe even find another ds, to check out the download play. (with all the downloading waits included) You won't say so again.

Why be theoretical? Just be fair and add the X9-TF. Seriously, how hard is it to do?!
I already pointed out both the Acekard and MicroNinja were listed on your chart before their reviews were out.
Now several people have asked you to add the X9-TF. Should we assume that, by your hesitation, you're inherently biased towards this product? It certainly looks that way!
I think they're just busy with other stuff and don't really feel like updating the list. I also think it's not good to only take a look at the list to check out which one you buy. Cause it doesn't say everything about how well the card works and such.
Saying GBATemp is biased against a product is just stupid, ithey're not getting anything better in any way in not filling in a stupid list yet. Don't search too much behind it, cause there isn't.
For the list, I'll post what I think is true from what I've read. But it has a lot of things which I doubt about. Like they included a touch GUI, but it's probably just for these list it's touchable, cause it doesn't really add anything, it's still a file list and for the scrolling you need to use the cursors anyway...
