Hi,

I have a GP2X - F100 and i have played Amiga games with various results, if you put the clock speed up you can get some very playable games. Some games also run very slow.

It is still a great machine and is better for Mame, Snes and megadrive and 8-bit classic emulation in my opinion.

Quote! I have also a GP2X F100 console, many(most) amiga games run very well, others not.

The F200 is more powerful than the F100 and the Pandora has even more surely they play more and better.

Due around December if not before, but only for preorders.
Not sure if they have any remaining on the first batch.  I ordered mine on the day the preorders went live, about a year or so ago. long wait ;)

Any info you need can be found at openpandora.org

Amiga emulators dispite the effort are pretty duff on my PSP so maybe a GP2X is the way to go? I do think I will hold out for when the 200 series becomes available (without the need to pre-order).

I think you can buy the f200 series now, but the gp2x wiz is even better apparently. And pandora is even better but getting a hold of one is dam hard.

F200 is basically the F100 with a touchscreen. It uses AA batteries (2) and eats them for lunch. I have an F100 which is a little better on batteries but is basically the sae thing. Amiga games on it were hit and miss. It's a little slow.
Just got a GP2X-Wiz which also is available right now and performance is much higher plus touchscreen plus rechargable battery.
Pandora sounds nice, but isnt available and who knows if they'll make their target date. I would never order anything a year in advance.
