That is looking really good, it'll get some attention once you release it.

I got it in a computer shop in london. You can get them anywere. Mine was quite expensive for some reason. But I am pretty sure you can get them for a few $s.

It was the bit where the pda went. But if I remember rightly you can get them without anything on the end and there cheaper that way.

This thread is now alive again!

Cyber's mobo arrived to day (thanks man).

Just tryed it out. No problems. The broken backlight clip isnt an issue. I just had to lift up the prongs and slide it in, holds in tight and the back light works!

I am going to get this started now. I am wating on a replacement shell for the ds so thats on the back burner for now.

I forgot to ask. Is there any problems with the nub contact points? You've been soldering them.

Man. Have you forgot this thead already??

Look up a few posts.

I have had a couple of ideas since I last worked on this. One is using the wifi for the lighting (but I'll probably have them on all the time).

The other is to have the colour change when the psp is docked with the controller. Not sure I'll do thast though as I just want it finished.

Well I learned alot from the first try at this. I've now got a better iron and some other stuff. Just rewired the usb's.

One thing thats worying me slightly is the controller led's. Last time I tried them out one flickering. Hopefully it was a just the way I was testing it. I dont want to open that rats nest ever again.

All thats left now is to do the standered analoge nub mod (and repaire the wonky contacts). Basicly finished.
