I guess that's a pretty hard job But you may ask reed (he's on IRC for the most time), he got a mobile phone that can play SIDs and MODs

how keen are you to do this?
it's possible if you have a PDA running palm OS, there is tracker software called Psytexx (kindly brought to my attention by Eagle a while ago)

with Psytexx 2.0 you can play back and track .MOD and .XM

kinda hard work tracking on a PDA though

MilkyTracker is available on some PDA systems, amoung them Windows CE or whatever it's called. I think Pailes may be developing the Tracker for more handheld platforms, too.

Milkyplay is also available, it's a standalone modplayer from Milkytracker developer pailes. Now, the thing is we're assuming what WeaPea is using is a PDA - he calls it a Pocket player , probably meaning he want someone to build the hardware and distribute a hardware mod player... yuk - this is not necessary.

However, if we don't know exactly what this is how can the suggestions here be relevant?  :razz:

My suggestion creates a workable mobile mod player. granted it costs a wee bit but you never know what kind of hardware peops can get hold of....

I don't see a genuine portable mod player being especially marketable, unfortunately. Although it sounds like an interesting project...

is anyone here smart enough to hack an mp3 player so it will play mods?
I know I'm not...  :razz:

There is a firmware for the iRiver that allows you to play modules. I don't know the details, but I do know someone who knows someone who's got one.

An iPod with a custom firmware or iPod Linux might able to play modules as well.
I guess the cheapest solution is to get a PDA from ebay since it usually doesn't need a patched firmware for 3rd party applications.

*sigh*

Just get a cheap MP3 player (they're all cheap nowadays) and convert your MODs/SIDs/XMs/whatever to MP3 format.  You'll save yourself a whole bunch of hassle.

If you already own a WinCE/PocketPC or PSP then get Milkyplay and nag pailes to add mp3/ogg support

hehe, i'd rather like an 1 GB mod player than an 1 GB mp3 player... My 1gb mp3 player is already full, but that aren't much tracks in comparison to the content of an mod player.. and converting all my mods to mp3 would take faaaaar to much time
