Which PPC for XLobby?

Postby WannaTheater on Sun Sep 24, 2006 12:24 am

Hi,

I'm in need of 2 PPCs to control XLobby. I'm looking at Dell Axims, HPs, etc. I'll be starting with Baddabings skin... Thanks Baddabing :D

Specifically, will the XLobby client run on Windows CE, Windows Mobile, etc? Or are there things I need to stay away from? 802.11b good enough?

Since these will only be used to control XLobby as remotes, I don't have a problem purchasing some older units off eBay, I just don't want to go so old that they aren't effective for XLobby.

Any recommendations/experiences would be appreciated, including both good and bad.

Thanks!

I have an old x3i and also I have a newly aquired x30. Both work awesome for xlobby. I'm not sure what you're looking for, but you might want to look into something with VGA. I mean, just a plain color ppc looks fine and is pretty darn nice for xlobby-ing, but I've always wanted vga. I guess just for that little extra sharpness.

I use a Dell x5 also. It works great. I just purchased an Ambicon Wifi Card. I haven't had any connection problems with it.
