I've been using my Game Boy to surf the web, but do you guys think it will become rare/valuable? It's been modified with an 802.11g PCMCIA wireless card and antenna.

That's right folks, there's more than one dimension to Banky beyond his drawings, and his comments... er, uh... sorry, I'm a horse and horses can't count.

Thanks - I wonder if there's any chance of getting a 4-tone monochrome optimized CAG skin for Game Boy mobile surfing...

Actually, as I mentioned in the other thread, my friend Methane modified it. He's like the MacGuyver of computer shit. Give him a pocket knife and a bios chip and he'll make you a battery charger type shit.
 
That's freakn' awesome.

I've seen lots of cool stuff done to old systems but that is possibly my favorite. I guess because it's the first time I've ever seen something like it. It'd be cool if you could make a small case/attatchment that all of that extra stuff could fit in and be somewhat out of the way.

How is the battery life on that? Or does it plug in or something. (stupid plug in would ruin the wireless effect.)

What can he do with an avacado, ice pick and snorkel?

The battery life is kinda rough...about 45 minutes if I keep the screen contrast all the way up, but I keep a couple of sets of rechargables handy so it's not so bad. Methane mentioned that it could be modded to accomodate a cellphone battery, but that's pretty hard, so we haven't attempted it yet. A cool case or a holster would be great, but as of now I just keep it in a Crown Royal bag.
 
i don't think t3h pr0n would look to good on that low resolution, small, grayscale screen.

Utterly useless :(










j/k that's awesome
 
I also this think is fake, the screen look too good, plus you would need sometype of software to run it, unless the IP was hard coded in some homebrew app. But I don't see that happening.
 
This has already become rare/valuable. I think you should sell it here for $5, which is at least a 500% markup on the unmodified original model.
