I just found this site, while searching for reviews for flash carts that would help me turn my DS into something that can play music and homebrew games, and overall be cooler than a PSP
Nothing will ever make the DS as cool as the PSP, because the DS cannot emulate as many systems as the Pee S Pee Can.
Also i think Deal Extreme sucks, they ship from Hong Kong? Bah!
i order my online stuff from resellers that are local
Modsupplier is very fast and responsive to their customers for example, and they process payments as soon as they arrive, and their shipping is overnight and because i live so near to where their based delivery is quicker for me.
sure it costs more for a local reseller, but think....
it's a service! they have ordered the stuff and keep it in stock they have fought all the import Boosh1t for you, and are being reliable in helping you, whereas something that is actually sent to you from Hong Kong isn't as safe and it takes a bloody long time.
i don't mind paying their operating costs for 1 day delivery, complaining "oh but it costs moooore!"
yeah well when you go and buy your groceries it costs more than if you goto the actual source of the items you purchased.
food goods are much cheaper when bought say from the producer itself, it costs more in a supermarket because it covers the operating costs of the staffs wages the lights the janitor delivery etc.
