Hi.
I'm looking for some shops in Ireland, where can I find that gadget:
http://www.joytech.net/product_info....products_id=95
would be great if it was some online shop accepting debit cards

in other way - some Dublin's shop?

they have the LCD screens in Game, saw some in the one in Henry street last week.
don't know if it is the joytech ones, but looked the same

Play have it in stock at the moment (http://www.play.com/play247.asp?pa=s...2&title=649482) for £99.99

AFAIK that includes shipping to Ireland, so would set you back around €150, along with a wait until sometime next week.

THANK YOU!!!
I just ordered it there
we'll see if its as good as they say

in Game there is LCD for PS2 - but the old version - it's AFAIK 6" and fits only to PS2 old one - not for PSTwo.

did anyone ordered anything from Play? how long did you wait for delivery?

Good stuff. My brother orders from Play all the time, Games and DVD's. He says they are reliable and usually take about a week to deliver from time of ordering.

Please post your thoughts on the screen when you get it. I've been thinking of getting one myself, but need to justify it to the missus. Independent views are helpful in that regard.

I had a problems with my debit card at their shop, so I got to Dublin and found it at Smith's Toys.
I bought it and...
hmmm... it isn't so great as I expected. don't get me wrong - IT IS a great thing, beautiful gadget, looks beauty, reaction times are great - you won't miss even one frame, but...
ok, let's start from cons

1. colors. you have beautifull green color all the time. but you must choose: both blue and red are lacky (not so nice and bright as green), or you have beautifull green and blue, but red sucks, or... you can finish yourself.
2. sound. you heard, that it sound great? bull****. ok. it's sounds fine as for such a small speakers - but don't expect any bass. SRS effect works nice - especially with DD movies. but it's not like: "amazing! wow!" - rather: "oh, nice - where are my phones?"
3. phones output. unfortunatelly there are some interferrences (did I wrote it right?) - when you play, you can hear the DVD spinning around, there is a lot of noises. buzzling noises. probably the monitor itself generates noises either, becouse after connecting to hifi and to hifi phones - I can still hear it. turning off the monitor eliminates most of the noise.
4. console gets warmer than usually.
5. you might disappear for the world for few days

that's all

so, now time for pros:

1. 60 Hz mode rulez!
2. clear, bright picture - high contrast - Gran Turismo rox again
3. playing at night, in the bed, with phones + Silent Hill 3 and entering the amusement park... brand new experience (I've finished the game for 3 times - and i was scarred again!)
4. it's extremly portable! whole thing (with PSTwo) is maybe 3-4 cm higher than PSTwo itself. fits to the bag

does Eirbus has free connectors for lighters?

5. very usefull remote controller - VERY usefull, even if you already own PS2 remote controller. and it's extra small
6. those reds and blues do not hasitate to be honest

7. for the price of VERY cheap 21" TV (or pretty good 14" TV) you get 8" LCD - but it won't burn your eyes (well, not so fast

)

I payed for it 154.99 Euros.

generally - I'm happy about it. it gave me a lot of fun. and I don;t have to worry anymore about my friends, who want to watch something on TV only becouse they don't like Silent Hill, or becouse there's some stupid Godzilla movie on RTE1

I'm just wondering what the hell is for a connector on the back of it? it's some kind of TV connector, but... it has a strange plug... if anyone knows what to do about it - let me know, 'couse in manual there's nothing about it.

P.S.
sorry for my English - I'm not Irish
