Wanna Buy x30 have questions

[squidler80]

I'm really interested in buying an x30 624mhz one, but i have some questions. I'm going to be using it alot for emulator programs like morphgear. Is there any button lag with x30 or anything like that, that would annoy my gameing experiance. Mostly snes games. And how is the performance with morphgear compared to my ipaq 4150 that i have overclocked to 530 mhz ?

I've been reading alot about people using Morphgear with great results on the 624. They had alot of trouble with the 312 but the 624 they said was awesome. I have yet to get mine yet so I don't have any real life experience myself but I'd say it was better from what people are talking about. Hope that helps.

I heard about some lag in it a one point but not sure which models it was or if was both. I think it may be a compatibility issue right now with morphgear and WM2003SE because other emulators like pocketnester and pocketNES and such don't have the button lag.

X30 High will out perform your 4150 @530mhz and use less power doin it thankz to the new chip.

I have used MG on my x30 high to play a few games, mainly gamboy and megadrive stuff and have not noticed a problem.

Being the fastest pda aroun dthe high will be beest for emulation and any bug will be fixed eventually, though as i say seems fine to me with whats I've been using.

actually as of this time the Axim X30 isnt best for gamming,

but that could change, soon i hope...

it's all about "GETRAWFRAMEBUFFER" read more about it ==> Click me


fyi

[Carrot007]

Yes the GETRAWFRAMEBUFFER isue is a problem that needs resolving.

However I have not found anything that fails on the x30 or runs slow, so it's more of athings that would be nice rather than a problem.

If you know otherwise please provide details.

The only issues I've had are silly wm2003se issues and fortunatly the gamse in questin have mostly been updated now.

Ive used my X30 High for playing quite a few SNES games and find the button lag to be very noticeable. Its not so bad for myself since I mostly play RPGs but anything that requires fast button presses is probably a lost cause.

[Carrot007]

Have you noticed it on anything else, I havn;t actually tried the snes emulation!

[Rattriax]

Havent noticed it on anything else solely because I have no use for the D-Pad other than for my emulation. Everything else I can control with the stylus, and ive even taken to playing the snes games in portrait mode so that I can have a virtual controller on screen that can be used with the stylus (no button lag )

For GBA games dont turn on sound and you should be fine

I have noticed considerable button lag on Pocket SNES and Quake. So much that I don't even care to play them anymore. I didn't buy it for the games though, I mostly watch videos.
