Palm OS Based Gaming Device Nears Release

Sokie writes "During the past few weeks Tapwave, a startup founded by a couple former Palm employees, has been slowly unveiling the features of their upcoming Helix (Flash heavy link) handheld gaming device. So far, the specs include a 480x320 16-bit color display, dual Secure Digital (SD) slots, Bluetooth connectivity for wireless multiplayer (Wi-Fi available through SDIO), multiple analog controls including triggers, ATI Imageon graphics, and dual rechargable lithium ion batteries (no word yet on battery life). In addition to some cool sounding hardware, several prominent game companies are already signed on to develop games for the Helix, including Activision and Midway. It will also run traditional Palm apps like Calendar and Address Book. Tapwave will continue to unveil a new feature each week for the next few weeks, and the product is supposed to launch in September or October and retail for about $299. PC World has some additional info."

The Gay Nigger Association of America (GNAA) is the group that represents the world's Gay Nigger population as well as those non gay, non nigger patrons that support it. Its mission is to foster a gay and free-loving climate that supports and promotes our members' creative and financial vitality.

Join the SJP Today!
SJP (SJP) is the first organization which
gathers Straight Jews from all over the world for this simple goal - being totally def.

Are you a member of the GNAA?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you may have just been beat to first post by the SJP!
Join SJP (Straight Jew Posse) today, and enjoy all the benefits of being a full-time SJP member.
GNAA (GAY NIGGER ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA) is the fastest-growing GAY NIGGER community with THOUSANDS of members all over United States of America. And If they can accomplish that, just imagine what Jews can do!

Facts:
1. Jews have their own country, one that doesn't suck, like all those African ones.
2. There are a lot of Smart Jews, which is bragable.(click on Science)
3. Whereas the GNAA undoubtedly likes to eat pork rinds and watermelon, we Jews prefer such fine cuisine as schmaltz and gribbenes
4. Jews have been kicked out of more countries than anyone else.

Join the SJP today! Why not? It's quick and easy - only 4 simple steps!

First, you have to be a Jew. Messianic Jews don't count and will be shot in the face. You're Christians. Don't steal our Jews.

Second, you need to be a heterosexual, if you're male. However there is evidence in the Torah that lesbianism is ok with G-D. So Kike Dykes are cool with the SJP.

Third, you need to download Licensed to Ill by the Beastie Boys, because rap is best done by Jews.

Fourth, send an email to SJP4eva2003@yahoo.com listing your qualifications and what you feel you can bring to the SJP. Of course, dual membership between the SJP and the GNAA is theoretically possible, but not recommended.

If you are having trouble locating #SJP, the official Straight Jew Posse IRC channel, that would be because it doesn't exist. IRC is for niggers.

If you have any Matzah Ball Soup and would like to support SJP, please moderate this post up.

Dual Secure Digital (SD) slots

[Zagar]

Dual Secure Digital (SD) slots

What a waste of space. I supose one of the slots will be for a memory card and the other card for the actual game. But couldn't they just reserve some space on the game card to store the save files. Makes sense to me and lowers the price tag and puts more room for batteries. Silly marketing executives trying to be hip and all that. "Gee, I have a great idea, let's put two SD slots! That'll impress the consumers!"
