I tried both, no difference
Using a cheap one on my Nexus Player with no issue. Some game don't work well with the xbox360 controller but this has nothing to do with the receiver

I've used a cheap $8 one that i got off eBay, works right out of the box with the NP

Are multiple wireless x360 controllers working on the NP with the wireless adapter?

The official Microsoft Adapter is cheap too. I really wanted the official one, so I paid $50 for a new controller with the adapter. Over time, the adapter worked less and less until it eventually broke. I really wanted the official adapter, and I didn't want to buy it used (if the new one would break like that, imagine a used one), so I coughed up another $50 to get another controller-adapter bundle. On the new one, it still works, but the cable is almost cut, and is holding on for dear life. It stops working from time to time, and I have to be super careful when using it. Moral of the story for anyone listening: save your money. Go el cheapo

I got one of those from Maplin for £5.99 and it comes with a handy round pin plug that charges my gps receiver as well
I have also got a battery extender that powers the XDA from 4 AA size batteries, but needs tweeking as it will discharge the XDA if connected for an extended period. I am guessing that a diode will solve the problem

That'll be Sony's newer Playstation Pocket, rather than normal Playstation console.
regular mini usb cable will do
hey, i wanted an additional sync/charge cable to keep at the office, so i bought a simple usb/mini usb cable for 3$ at a local pc store -works perfectly.
the pda specialist store at the same shopping center wanted 25$ for the same thing, essentialy - just called it a sync/charge cable for UNIVERSAL... bastard thieves.

RAM and Other Upgrades on Sprint Mogul

It's good to have found this group
As a new user or about to be one, I have a need for an internet phone that runs Mobile 5/6. After much research, I've landed on the Sprint Mogul. I'll be using it mostly for email, surfing the net, and streaming internet radio via Live365's new Windows Mobile 6 application. Basically, I need to stay connected to my business while away from my laptop.
Before I make my purchase tomorrow, I'm concerned about the RAM. I think the Mogul comes with 128k RAM and is upgradeable to 2MB. Am I correct about this, and if so, should I get the upgrade immediately?
Also, can I use external stereo headphones that have a 1/8 stereo phono plug with the headset USB adapter bundled with the phone?
Is there any other upgrades I should be concerned about as a new user?
I'll be using the phone mostly in NYC. Many thanks in advance.

The Mogul/PPC6800/P4000 comes with 64mb Ram/256mb Rom and is (atthis point) non-upgradeable. It has a slot that holds a MicroSD card which can fit up to 4GB stock; 6GB on up with a specific .cab file.
The stock headphones have a mini-usb connector. You will have to purchase a mini-usb to 1/8 phono plug to use those headphones.
As far as upgrades... Welcome.
Read ALOT. There is much here in the way of software & hardware upgrades. The general forum has accessories & software development threads which can benefit many applications & devices.
Thanks xweaponx for the quick response and advice.

Can I pick up one of these at the local radioshack or is this something I need to special order somewhere else?

Yes. You can pick up an adapter at Radio-Shack or Wal-Mart. Pretty much any place that carries audio products or headphones.

I'm sorry I'll have to disagree with you here... Maybe it's because of my area, But I was unable to find any retailers that had even heard of a Mini-usb / Headphone jack. They ALL looked at me like I was speaking Greek in China.
I had to order mine on-line from Moguldepot.com It was about $16.00 after shipping. Kinda expensive for a simple adapter if you ask me, but worth it since no one had even heard of it.
the mogul includes a Mini-USB to a 2.5mm Phono plug adapter... so you could have gotten a 2.5mm to 3.5mm standard adapter as well.

How long before LG gets it together and release a slimport adapter?

It doesn't seem to exist anywhere else but amazon and not even amazon has it in stock anymore, where are we supposed to get this adapter from? I'd love to have one, but no body has it available. Can't figure out where it'll be come from next, anyone got any clues I've missed?

Just ordered one on Amazon. Why would you want LG to manufacture this? It is a licence free and royalty free tech. Hopefully down the road we will see them for < 10 dollars.

I saw on their website they will be releasing a VGA adapter early this year.

Thanks a lot for that second link. I've been scouring this forum for a link to a MyDP/SlimPort solution that didn't cost $70+ XD.
Did you buy the adapter or the cable? How's it working out for you?

Anyone know of a good (not $30) SlimPort Video Out cable?

I'm getting this phone today, and I hear it does NOT support MHL, which is not awesome because I have like 4 MHL adapters laying around. So I guess I need a "Slimport" out adapter, but they are coming up at $30 each. Anyone have a recommend on one that does not cost that much, or if they all do, any recommendations on the "best" one that does not cut out etc..?
they're all $30.. its the standard price http://www.amazon.com/SlimPort®-SP1...=UTF8&qid=1363706599&sr=1-1&keywords=Slimport

I couldnt load the page, but im assuming its a third party one. Make sure your not paying much for it, ive brought a couple of $5 usd ones. One didnt work at all and the other i had to resolder all the connections.
If you can find a genuine one, its your best bet.
