You may want multiple US 32X then, these cost nothing compared to European ones
I can give you tips on getting the 32X behave (these buggers love to crash ).

Now Erase->Write, - about 2min 30 seconds... In fact, 1000 times Erase->Write->Verify report no error, and it means that we can use only Erase->Write processes )))))

I sometimes got flashing errors(1 or 2 bytes maybe) when I run CPU intensive programs while the (MS-DOS) flashing utility runs (program controls a "dumb" device from LPT port and manually writes and polls the flashchips).

My device use HW Write pooling control. Write errors is not possible. Verify error is signalled if FLASH chip broken or writes limit is reached.

I'm also interested in that card.

Do you think you could design a microSD flashcart just like the DS ones?
(To be able to copy a lot of roms and a ingame menu to select the desired one).

Nice piece of hard!

Ok, I've got to get one of these things.

Sending money to Russia seems like a pain. The easiest option would seem to be a wire transfer. That Webmoney service only seems like an easy option if you've already got an account with credit, or you live in Russia. It looks like the only way I would have of getting money into a Webmoney account from Australia would be to do a wire transfer into the account, in which case, I may as well do a wire transfer of the money directly to you instead. For a wire transfer, I'll need the SWIFT code of your bank, and your account name/number. I'll send you a PM.

There is Western Union option too, which did cost me 6$ (probably because I live not that far from Russia).

Hmm, I wonder if it makes sense for somebody (not me ) here to buy a few of these, and the people that want them instead send the money to that person? It would simplify things somewhat. I wouldn't mind paying a fair bit extra for the convenience. Like, send the money to person X, person X then places the order, and pays for them all at once - person X makes himself a few bucks for his trouble.

Hmm? Hmm?

Of course. That would be wise to order the wholesale for reduce the cost of shipping. Do not consider this as advertising. But that person "X" should be geographically most closely to target.

Totaly right!

besides western union, my wife is using www.xoom.com

works pretty well and waaay cheaper

"Ooops seems not available for russia :s"

Notaz lives next to Russia, I do... Russia and Estonia don't get along too well, don't know about Lithuania, but I don't think they're having things worse than we do
Sending stuff to Russia cost little to me, and reciving should not cost anything, as long as package is less than 1kg, then I have to pay import tax

I would offer myself for distributing these across Europe. I can accept PayPal, bank transfer, and cash via regular mail.

Of course, I would ship to the US too, but I am not sure if this isn't even more expansive than to ship from Russia directly.

One problem I see is that I will definitely need a few weeks to come up with the money for my own set of cartridges.

The other problem is that I am a slow person (Tiido knows what I mean). It might take me a while to process an order. On the other hand I am an honest person and I won't let anyone down.


EDIT: I didn't notice Tiido's reply.


EDIT #2:

Okay, I looked it up and it's €13,90 for a small package to the US. I will go to the post office tomorrow and ask if I can send a package of that size and weight as standard mail.

It's right, not aviable for...

Anything happening with this?

By the way, does this require a USB driver, and if so, who wrote it? Since it seems we are pretty much doomed to PCs with no parallel ports, I'm going to have to delve into this stuff at some point
