I know I'll inevitably sound like I'm blowing my own trumpet here with my first post, but I've sold a few SD adapters on eBay for a lot less than the other ones have gone for:

If anyone here is interested in one, just send me a PM. Only want to post to the UK initially, as I've just started making these and don't want to make a loss on international postage if one turns out faulty.

If you don't mind if I ask, how are you making the connector that plugs into the serial port?

Given that getting hold of actual Dreamcast serial port connectors would make the process far too costly, I use plastic sytrene cut to fit the port and then use any cheap connectors and cheap USB SD adapters bought from Hong Kong on eBay.

Sure, everything you can come up with that doesn't exist already...

For starters, recompiling all the emus to support sd.
Games that use larges amount of data.
Some cheat loader that loads the cheats off SD.

@Neoblast, I can only dream of the great apps you could come up with for this. :D Mine is coming in the mail now, and they just FINALY sent it out, so the long odyssey from China to Texas begins.

Vasiliy, how long did it take for you to recieve it after it got shipped out? Obviously it must not take so long as it would to send to America, but maybe you can give me an idea of the time span? Over sea shipping is a real drag.

Also, just to make this easier for everybody to order, I have made a tutorial over at Dcisozone to help make it as easy as possible. I hope it helps folks.

One month for me but it's very well for mine post services. You'll get it more quick for sure.
