Can you still access the Cowon via USB from your computer? If so, download the latest firmware and Applications from the Cowon website here. Follow the upgrade instructions and that should restore everything that was missing.

Tamiya has re-issued the Frog, so you can get replacement tires easily and cheaply off of sites like ebay. What other tips are you looking for?

Dude I got one of those. Mine had the Parma chenoweth racing team body. It is currently going threw some rebuilding, I got it off this old man and he said he fix the speed controler but it doesn’t work and the front tire has a hole in the side wall so I’m fixing it a little at a time. If you can could you e-mail me some tips on my frog thank you.~Cody

One device that’s probably the closest to what you describe is the iPhone. It runs a pretty robust version of OS X.

Not that I know of. These mobile devices may have the power, but they lack the memory and/or the processor chips have an improper instruction set to run an OS like XP.

Is there any chance you know of a device that you can modify to run 2k or XP that is roughly the size of the cowon? Looking at the stats most of these pmps have the power to do it
