A quick tip if you are an impatient sort like myself.
You can use normal .z80 files for the save state slots. This means you have instant access via the touch screen to your ten favourite games. No messing about with file browsers and directory trees. Instant loading FTW.
Simply rename your .z80 to ZXDSx.Z80
*subsitute "x" to 0-9 for the appropriate slot. example: ZXDS1.Z80 would be slot 2 save state.

That's a good tip actually, in fact, I have tons of stuff on my 2GB sd card and scrolling trough hundreds of files just to find a few favorites games is really a pain....
But anyway by the look of it, I'd say we will see a decent file system/browser in about a week or two......by that time there will be no more restrictions.
It's impressive how this guy just in 3 weeks got a fully working 128K /AY soundchip emulator out and how quickly he managed to over come all the issues that others had for so long.
Now that the trickiest piece of code is done, there will be plenty of time to make things "nicer" .
For the moment I keep on pushing some of my files back and forth on the root of my card, so I gladly take your tip !
Thanks.
