    looking at that speaker I originally thought it would slot into the MMC slot, but now that I think about it some more... I haven't got a D, so could someone tell me where the headphone outputs are on the QD?

    I don't suppose they have made it universal for owners of the original N-Gage. I hate when they do things like that ~ Nintendo disowned the eReader when they released the SP... And looks like Nokia are trying to forget that they ever made a cornish pastie in the shape of a phone (Or was it the other way around???)

    The headphone jack is on the top center, right next to the power cord.

    I think the E-Reader works fine on the SP. It slides in the cartridge slot and if you need the link cable, you use the exposed link socket on top of the SP, not the E-Reader passthrough.

    If you haven't played it before as I hadn't the learning cuve is pretty steap. I had to watch some online Flash tutorials in order to figure it out. Once you get the hang of it, its probalby one of the best games I have on my N-Gage. Its a great strategy game. The depth and balance is great. Its intresting because once you figure it out its kind of a simple game of building settlements, roads and trading goods. As soon as I update my N-Gage list on the first page of this thread it will be near the top. I recommend it highly but if your new to the game you might need some online help to get you going.

    It does work, but not all functions work as the USB-like connection sticks out, not actually joined to anything. Therefore, transferring codes to Animal Crossing is impossible unless you have an original style GBA. And again, I bet it doesn't work with the GBA Micro...

    i FINNALY got my qd up ad running. bought it used sans a sim card, so i had to track one of those down.

    im actually enjoying it greatly, Splinter Cell: CT and Operation Shadow are my favorites so far.

    i have a question for you guys, what games can you actually play online, with other people? not ghost races ect. i lack GPRS service and a bluetooth dongle at the moment so cant test any of my games out.

    AFAIK there are just four games:

    Pocket Kingdom
    Pathway to Glory
    Worms World Party
    Pathway to Glory Ikusa Islands (out this week according to Nokia)

    The online part of Catan was cancelled

    They should have at least included a hot seat mode.

    Rifts and High Sieze are supposed to have online play I think. I'm not to sure what their release status is. Nokia says they're out.

    thanks for the heads up guys. I just called to make sure they seperate my order and got these titles shipped out to me.

    That brings the U.S. release list up to 46.

    I got copies of HIgh Seize and One on Monday, along with Catan and System Rush a few weeks earlier. I placed an order for a ton more games that supposedly are shipping this week as well.

    I order my games from The official NGAGE site, it redirects me to the letstalk.com site only after my order is placed.

    Atari Collection ships to me today, and the remaining $200 worth of games I preordered ship one of these days.

    the left hand doesnt know what the right hand is doing, apparently. if there were ANYWHERE to buy these games other than letstalk i would. i have literally spent hours on the phone waiting for these people to take thier heads out of their asses, and gotten nowhere.

    if anyone gets through and has actual accurate information, please take a contact name and i will ask for them direct. the people ive talked to have no idea whats going on. ive actually had letstalk representatives tell me they didnt know these games are sold on their site.

    i placed my preorder on august 16th. id have thought id be included in the first shipment.

    I just got a tracking order number for my Rifts purchase. I guess its available now. I also got them to seperate One and Hiegh Sieze from the rest of my pre-orders so they would ship now. I'm now having a problem getting them to ship Atari Masterpiece Vol 1 to me ... I guess I'll try again to day.

    I must agree that the people at letstalk are the least informed people I've ever had to do business with. I have to walk them through the steps every time I call.

    them: "That games still back ordered sir"
    me: "are you sure it says it available on your site and I have friends who have already got it"
    them: "yes" .... "oh wait I do see it listed as available"

    I just want to know what screen are they looking at when they answer the phone? that would also be a good call since some people who answer try and tell you they don't even sell N-Gage stuff.
