Spotted a cheap XDA I which i may be able to pick up for around 50 quid, so i was wondering looking at the specs of a 200mhz processor how well it performs with audio and video? As well as gaming and the odd emulation? Finally i wondered if its possible to replace the battery as the one I may get seems to have a nackered battery :(

I still have a XDA 1 and be please with it.

Audio is good.
I do not try VDO for real but should be fine.
I do not game with it, so I cannot comment.

Regarding the battery, this is the most critical part.
You can :
1. Buy a replacement battery and change it (not difficult really but will void the garanty)
2. Buy an external additional battery (probalby very difficult to find now)

In any cases, my comments is: Find a new battery before you decide to buy it, as it start to be really old. (it might be cheaper to buy a "fried" XDA that a replacement battery).
