Regarding modchips - Akirachip was the best. $12 in 10+ quantities, had a pin contact already soldered on the PCB and had 1Mb of flash. Too bad they disappeared.

Well does anyone have an akira (or know what chip they used for the 1mb?) so that we could start using them for cheapmods?

I have my 1st cheapmod on the way to me and have seen how people can piggyback them, etc, so thinking we might be able to make the 1mb chip work if we knew what it was...

ya bugger I was just about to post that one!

Duo-X Chip Specification
- One chip for v1-v1.5  Xbox
- Very easy to disable mod for Xbox Live
- LED blinks when it is in operation
- Can use 1 MB bios
- 9 solder points + 2 wire Installation
- Plays original imports
- Plays Backups of originals
- Plays unsigned code
- Run Debug Executables
- No-patch hack 1
- No-patch hack 2
- IGR
- Eject trick hack
- DVD Reset
- EvoX HDD Patch
- Support for HDD greater than 137+gigs.
- Auto detect EvoX Dashboard

Duo-X  Compatibility Table

US/Pal/Jap/Asian v1.0, v1.1, v1.2, v1.3, v1,4, v1.5

BTW - how many bios's actually need / use the full 1MB???

I would say I could supply these for just a tad more than the AppleX V.

*****************

Also - by the way Blade.cc is a rip off! - they make up all this shit about doing premium formatting of your HD so it lasts longer in your xbox etc - they charge like:

Modified "Budget" Xbox Game Console w Original HDD $419
Modified "Quality" Xbox Game Console w Original HDD $479
Modified "Premium" Xbox Game Console w Original HDD $549
Budget" Xbox Game Console w 80Gig HDD $579
Budget" Xbox Game Console w 120Gig HDD $619
Modified "Premium" Xbox Game Console w 80Gig HDD $699
Modified "Premium" Xbox Game Console w 120Gig HDD $749

That is $500 to install a 120GB HD and a chip - WTF!?? how can they justify that??

Typical 120GB HD costs - $145 to $180
Typical wholesale chip costs - $15
Software install 10 minutes costs - $0

That is like $305 to $340 profit.

And just in case you did not know - most of the features you (bloodguard) are so happy with a freely available with the use of the slayer CD - and have nothing to do with the chip installed!

Duo x is a mish mash of homebrew code and even the solder connecter is out dated for the market place now,Its funny that they try to emulate an Aladdin style mod and end up with something that is 6 months out of date!
Price should be around $10-$12 retail for this type of chip and around $6 or less wholesale.

Screw that. I install in Australia and I charge AUD$250 for chip, 120gb drive and install. These guys are off the planet, even with the extra $300 or so for the box (assuming this is included in their prices) that leaves the price at $540-$550, not $750...two plus two make five, apparently.
Still, I bet they get plenty of ignorant customers...
