A few people were not happy with the two D-Pads, which looked quite odd for most of us.
Gamepark Holdings decided to work out minor things, but these will result into a shipping delay of few weeks.
Read on what Evildragon told us earlier today:
Some of you may know GPH and me are currently at the IFA exhibition in Berlin.
We had quite some conversations during the last days – and I’m really happy to announce the following:
The 2nd DPad of the Wiz will be replaced with 4 proper buttons! AND the 2.5mm headphone jack will be replaced with a 3.5mm one.
So the only flaws I could see with this system will be fixed!
On the downside it means that the release of the Wiz will be delayed for 30 days (so it will be shipped in November), but I think that’s best.
If you like that decision, you can use this thread to thank GPH, as they will be reading it!

Slide2View (S2V) is a stylus-free picture viewing application. It can also be used to set up the wallpapers for S2U2 (0.97 or later); assign a pic to a contact; set it as Today’s wallpaper; or send it via MMS/email.
Changes:
– fixed the occasional bug that S2V quit unexpectedly when viewing a particular folder.
– added the options to change the sorting menu symbol. It’s only useful for those devices that cannot display the triangles on the sorting menu. How? Create a registry value AscendingSymbol (String) at HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareA_CS2V, set the content to whatever you want, e.g. ^, or even a word (ascending). Create another one called DescendingSymbol for the descending order.
– fixed some minor bugs.
