    Powered Usb Hub

    Disabling busted L & R shoulder buttons

    Now that I've learned the hard way that a state-of-the-art, hand-made, electronics device can easily be damaged I need some help from the community.  The Left & Right shoulder buttons have taken the largest impacts and have been jammed downward to point of no longer springing back up - which is...

    WANTED: PowerVR Video Card?

    Thank you, everyone, for your responses. Been researching all of your suggestions. I think for a potential OpenPandora publisher like ourselves, we need to make OpenPandora development kits out of BeagleBoard-xM's - for graphics development - at least until OpenPandora hardware becomes more...

    WANTED: PowerVR Video Card?

    We're not into either cross-dev or native-OpenPandora-dev options, and there IS a potential 3rd solution. As a 3D MMORPG publisher, we're more concerned with fast native graphics first (Game code is mostly Python and any compiled code can be moved to native ARMv7 as a second pass). Anyone...
