    1st charge of 1ghz unit, won't go over 86%

    Ok, as an update, I used it for a little while then plugged it back in at around 81%. It's now charged up to 90% in about 30 minutes, but there is still no indication of a charge-- no light on the unit, nothing in the icon in the toolbar. Is there just no charging light after 80% or could there...

    1st charge of 1ghz unit, won't go over 86%

    Hi, I received my 1ghz unit today and I am trying to get it charged up and ready to go. I have been busy with other things today so I just plugged in the Pandora and let it sit (it turned itself on and wanted to do the initial setup, which I didn't do-- but the fact it turned itself on makes...

    how many 1 ghz preorders are left? and who has one coming !

    Mine showed up today (on my birthday! :) ) looking pretty much pristine, although I can understand the concern about a lack of protection. I was a little surprised everything was just packaged tightly together. Things seem fine although I am still trying to get it charged but that's for...

    Global Components did it again :)

    I was specifically told that my 1Ghz upgrade from Craig was actually going to DELAY my order because my original (1 Oct 2008) pre-order was due to ship in the next batch of units they received. And they gave me the chance to back out with that information...

    how many 1 ghz preorders are left? and who has one coming !

    I'm getting very excited to finally get to check one of these out... I even have a coworker willing to take me out to lunch to show him the Pandora, simply because I don't think he ever really thought I'd get it. Now to just hope the mail service doesn't do anything silly.. ;)

    how many 1 ghz preorders are left? and who has one coming !

    Just got my shipping notice from Jacquelyn! Woot! The long wait from 1 October 2008 is alllmost over.... (the funny thing is I actually extended my wait for the 1Ghz unit as I was told my original pre-order was just about to ship when these upgrades became available) Now where did I put that...

    Shipping to Canada

    I'm actually curious about this too, with my 1Ghz hopefully shipped this week from the UK to me in the US-- anyone know if/how much customs/duties/etc come into play?

    Global Components did it again :)

    Fantastic news! I'm #24 on Craig's queue for a 1ghz after upgrading my 1 Oct 2008 order... maybe I will see it here in the US in time for my birthday??? (the 22nd..) It will be funny to track down what coworkers I still have who remember when I ordered the thing in the first place. I've been...

    Faster delivery/upgrade - Craig's orders

    Yes, my (as yet shipped) pre-order upgrade to 1ghz price was $369..

    how many 1 ghz preorders are left? and who has one coming !

    I was an Oct 2008 preorderer, and upgraded because I wanted the Pandora originally as an ultimate emulation machine and I figured the 1ghz model has a chance to stay that for a bit longer. :) (especially with the faster RAM and more L1 cache, will be nice to not HAVE to overclock so much, and...

    ... and production still is reliable and moving forward :) (2012-05-11)

    I was told that my 1 October 2008 order was set to ship in the NEXT batch of Pandoras Craig's store receives (not the one currently in transit)... Of course that was before I decided to upgrade to the 1ghz model. I've waited this long, what's another Two Months?

    ... and production still is reliable and moving forward :) (2012-05-11)

    As I've posted before, my (non-upgraded) preorder was with Craig's shop, 1 Oct 2008, 23:04 GMT, and no word of shipping -- I keep thinking it'll be "any day now".. or maybe Two Months. :)
