A few of you may have heard of the Sony PSP clone the PXP-900. The specs dont stack up particularly well against the more modern handhelds but it its audio circuitry is rumoured to have been specced and designed by none other than Wu-Tang Kwan, the audio engineer responsible for the multi award winning high end Amp the KNOT-Serie-US/N4Z1
 

"the device offers extensive PMP features, including here support for AVI, RM, RMVB, WMV, ASF, MPG, MPEG, MPE, MP4, DAT, MOV, DAT video files, MP3, WMA, WAV, APE, FLAC, RM-Audio, AMR, AAC+ audio files, but also JPEG, GIF, BMP photos (with zoom feature) and books in TXT format.
 

Moreover, the device packs a 4.3-inch display with 320x240 pixel resolution,  external input 24/196 USB DAC capabilities, a built-in camera module, 2GB Flash internal memory, as well as an SD Card slot, which supports 

memory cards

 with sizes of up to 4GB. The whole contraption is powered by its built-in rechargeable lithium batteries."

Not sure if it's a DX100 killer by any means, but boy, do I sure want one now.

There is a hack for it, you solder a wire using BS! 5% silver solder from phase 2 of the headphone jack to the DAC ground and max SDcard capacity will increase. Wu-Tang Kwan the designer of the multi award winning amp (KNOT-Serie-US) has been able to use MicroSD card capacities of 520GB and higher using this mod. 

 
Have you googled Wu-Tang Kwans multi award winning Amp?  Its so rare that its believed none actually exist.

Well spotted... and early on!
 
 
 
Apologies, that was a bit mean, April 1st is over 4 months away after all... but I cant believe some of you would actually consider buying something like this based on a groundless rumour,  but Its really not that much different from some of the marketing BS we often read in audio equipment ads. It really does pay to do your homework... a lesson could be learned here.

I can't seem to find the BS! 5% silver solder you speak of.  I've already ordered two PXP-900's, so I'd like to get the solder at the same time.  HALP!
