    A handheld DHD could help. Nothing Owen couldn't design, I'm sure
    JACKSON: ...I mean isn't that why we're doing this, all of this? The Stargate program, the budget? Isn't it so we can go and meet new races, gather advanced technology and possibly learn about ourselves in the process?
    VALA: Oh, come on! you do it to meet women.
    MITCHELL: She has a point, sir.
    LANDRY    : I've been thinking I need to get out on an offworld mission or two.

      You are most likely correct in your assumption that the stargates in the Pegasus Galaxy were not designed for ships.

      It is currently my belief that the Pegasus Stargates are of the same design as the Atlantis Stargate, but are connected to a DHD instead of being connected to an advanced dialing computer.

        Ok, the lighted ones, but they are closer to digital than the milky way gates.

          That is ok, I don't mind, actually, in The Movie Network magazine, for July 2005, the advertisment for Stargate Atlantis: Seaon Two, has a picture of a Stargate (regular) with blue chevrons instead. I will try to dig up a picture or I will just scan my copy.

            lol, thank you!

            Actually it wouldn't be that difficult, it would not be as sophisticated as the DHD but it would dial the gate. We could call it a D.H.D. a Dialing Handheld Device. Or another name.

            All it needs is thirty nine keys, each of the symbols, and one for the common point of origin, like in the puddle jumpers, then they would convert the information into the same electrical impulses, and then the device could release an the electrical impulses, dial remotley like the puddle jumpers. However, it might be a problem for the gates in space. lol.

              I believe one already exists. We've seen it used once or twice on SG-1.

                You're right, Cassandra used it to activate the Stargate in "1969." That one even allowed the Stargate to open without a vortex. Mine would be better. lol.

                  Hey, sorry it has taken me so long to get the picture, I didn't find the exact ony from the magazine but it is basically the same, I think it is cover art off of a DVD, ignore the left side of the picture.



                  As you can see in this picture the Stargate is the same one from the milky way except the chevrons are blue, you probably saw a picture like this, which gave you the impression that all Pegaus gates look like this.

                    Well being the acients im sure they could have used puddle jumpers or rebuilt the computer in minutes where as on the less developed worlds a back up was needed in oder to allow them to travle no matter what as not all plannets would have the tech they would need to do it avaliable. Ethier that or it was an asthetic thing "that looks fabulose in blue but lets get rid of that mechanical ring it so does not fit with that new modern look"

                      Well, yes athestics is probably a big part they just wanted to cahnge the look of the gate so they good have something diffrent. But there is probably a technological aspect in there that was cahnged as well.
