Excerpts from IRC:

Dec 11 14:57:57 * LionsPhil is looking at the GP2X, and wondering how
whack, evil, or shiny it might be.
Dec 11 14:58:51 <alriddoch> Every time I use my GP2X, I have to cold
cycle it or it won't reboot again. Cold cycling involves taking the
batteries out, and leaving it for a couple of days.
Dec 11 15:00:52 <Tom> Never had that trouble with my gp2x.
Dec 11 15:03:37 <alriddoch> My GP2X is an early model of the hardware,
so the issues may have been improved upon

Dec 11 15:12:27 <LionsPhil> Harry: Looks still Evil:
