    Psychology of Pricing

    The price in the price calculation is without taxes because it's the international price. In germany it is also common to show all prices with VAT included (with the exception of business-to-business shops) and the prices in EDs shop are also shown in that way. So there should not be much...

    Bugs and Calculations

    Why? The reactions to this possibillity in this thread are controversal, but no one seems to be "pissed off" so far. Some eventually may be, but "all" and "forever" seems a bit exaggerated. Of course this solution would not be ideal, so lets see how this will work out. For sure it will be...

    Bugs and Calculations

    I guess the PDF available here: http://www.gemalto.com/m2m/solutions/modules-terminals/industrial-plus/pls8 offers a good comparison of the different PLS8 types So it seems the V-version won't be suitable at all, as I guess "LTE only" means there are no fallback options if LTE would not be...

    Bugs and Calculations

    I have a similar question. In order to do targeted money-saving, I already bought some gift vouchers at Dragonbox. (but much lesser, would just be a part of the downpayment) So although you already have that part of profit, it would may be complicated to include it in your calculation. So should...

    ... we're still alive!

    Depends on the definition. It's an analogue wheel in the same way that an analogue joystick is an analogue joystick. It's not an independant hardware volume control though (But I agree that's what some might expect).

    ... we're still alive!

    Hm.. still no mentioning of the cpu-board (Though the more accurate name might be SoC-Board, as it contains much more than the CPU.) I think this fact should also be shown on the spec page or at another prominent place. So far i guess it is a bit "hidden" in the Wiki and the Forums, from the...

    ... we're still alive!

    The prize of the 4G version will probably be in between: 500€ + 100€ (ED said that would probably the price difference between the versions) + VAT. So within the EU we will probably have a retail price of about 600€ for the base model and a bit more than 700€ for the 4G version

    New and Improved Case Color Poll

    Just place you ascii art between [code ] and [/code ] (without blanks in the tags) and it would be fine.

    ... we're still alive!

    It's from The price calculation thread. And that was before all the small decisions of slightly more expensive parts were made, like the other wifi chip and more keyboard leds for example. Of course it could be that some parts became slightly cheaper since the thread was started, what hopefully...

    Some Prototype Pictures

    Looks great! A question, just out of curiousity : The Lid section is a bit assymetrical. There are more holes and the right side than on the left, (only on the left side with screws, as it seems because the lcd pcb is too big and probably would need somes holes too/additional cutting yet) What...

    ... we're still alive!

    Thats why I said "it seems", didn't take it for granted. But I guess most posters here do not have practical experience with mass storage memory consumption of a debian OS on OMAP5, so I figured one speculation more or less wouldn't matter. I'm fine with wathever size will be chosen and as...

    From the wiki: So it seems you can indeed use both at the same time.

    ... we're still alive!

    Actually this is something that troubles me a bit. Previously there were some small changes, that made the developement slightly more expensive (e.G. change of the Wifi Chip, adding more Keyboard LEDs). Not much, only a few € here and there. But those costs sum up. But still the the estimated...

    Pyra - too hot for you!

    I would consider his tweet as news here. The important fact is that it was made after this thread, especially he responded afterward. Theoretically it could be that this twitter conversation was a joke instead, but I highly doubt he would be in the mood of making jokes after such an incident...

    First newspost coming FROM the Pyra!

    I would say that depends on the definition. But the problem is that the term "emulation" is often misleading as it's often associated with massive overhead and performance trade-off. But running a program with wine is not necessarily much slower than running it natively. Wine is basicly just a...

    What software/emulators are in development for the Pyra?

    @ible Oh, do we? I checked the wiki before my post and the link on this page https://www.pyra-handheld.com/wiki/index.php?title=Debian is pointing to jessie. But maybe the page is outdated and made back when jessie was testing. If we are using testing you should of course be more careful with...

    What software/emulators are in development for the Pyra?

    I would prefer dist-upgrade instead as the dependancies are normally handled better. But generally, as the Pyra would use debian stable, I'd expect upgrading the Pyra should work just fine (in the most cases. As with every OS,update regressions are always a possibility)

    First newspost coming FROM the Pyra!

    Exactly. But in order to answer mius' question, i thought it would be slightly overkill to mention it. Well, this is always the "risk" of being an early adopter. However, thanks to the modularity of the pyra, future upgrade would be relatively cheap as you just have to order a new a cpu board...

    First newspost coming FROM the Pyra!

    Great news! A space key at the width of normal letter keys. So this is also a slightly hidden wish of a different keyboard layout (as this will add one additional key) and would also require another keyboard mold. So comradekingu placed that wish at the 1000€ section for a good reason: even...
