I brought this item up some time ago here and it was roundly rejected as a Bad Thing.

My guess is that although it is similiar to an R4/M3 in appearance, the firmware for this cart is going to be updated less often and appears to contain some limitations intended to prevent you from running anything you want- i.e. back up ROM's. It also appears to have a limitation on the rate of MP3 encoding, but I don't know enough to know if that is serious.

It appears to come with a 512 card, whereas the R4 comes with a 1GB card usually.

I would guess this would work, but for my money I think I would rather have a cart that will likely run anything I want it to run, would probably have it's firmware updated more often, that I know would work with a 2 GB card if I wanted it to, has less of a tone of control, and that likely has a larger support community.

Your mileage may vary.

HTH.

--Original spring-loaded R4 with 2GB Class 2 Kingston
--M3 Real with 8GB Class 6 A-Data (kickgaming.com kicks butt)
