          @LukeC a possible idea for a screen in the future:

          Nice clean build. Doesn't look like most of the Frankenstein builds people make for handhelds

            @herb_fargus Thanks! Once upon a time when you would have to purchase a project box and dremel everything (visions of epoxy everywhere).. Thank goodness for 3D printing.

            I will definitely look into one of those crispier screens for next time though - thanks!

                I'd love to make something like this, but I lack the time, skills, tools and motivation (in that order).

                  Hardware-wise it looks great, but I'm not in any way happy or supportive of downloading a pre built image with Roms in it. That's the kind of thing that keeps damaging the project as a whole, and it seriously isn't hard to set it up by yourself via the official image and doing things by the book. Maybe that's the only thing I'd change for next time.

                  Thanks for sharing.

                  What's the power and battery life on it?

                      @pjft I will look in to it for next time, I wasn't particularly happy with the one I downloaded, and now I've seen what people have been doing on the forums I think I'll have to next. But for me, this was mostly an electronics project.

                      If I remember right, the battery is 3.7v 2500mah; not had a full play on it yet as I've been working in between, but will update once I get some free time!

                      @AluLagoa Thank you!
