1.5 mil polygons is pretty good for something portable.

25000 per frame isn't bad at all, although it might just be something they dreamed up on a calculator (tuts at the lies on the eXBoX and PS2 specsheets)


At least farting ferrets are better than stinky stoats.

What attracts me most to these devices is the homebrew factor. Although there is a downside to homebrew programming with handhelds. The problem being code testing, it gets to be a real hassle to compile, transfer, and test for each part of the development process. This also happens when coding drivers for hardware.

There are a lot of users out there that really enjoy this companies devices, and I guess someday I'll jump on the same train and start homebrewing with it. The mini seems to be a good deal for the price.

Mini looks nice, but the big one is just dog.
