Thank you for the update and all your hard work. BEGGING you to please not make a fan a requirement. Fans are a deal breaker for me on so small a device. First thing to fail, always. Nice to see there's a heat sink solution.

Thank god they're not colors. The original cyan iMac was super popular... about 15 years ago. I'm happy if ED can do a color or two for people who want it, but to not have a neutral option like black white or clear seems insane to me.

Thanks for the video, ED. Please, please, please don't consider the powder coating. Apple, one of the best manufacturers of portable electronics in the world, made black iPhone 5s that chip and scrape off. The Gameboy SP's metallic powder coating wears off. Please please please, plain...

Black or clear has to be an initial option, please, ED!

Black is most definitely the option that appeals to the greatest group of buyers.

Please for the love of god no one ask for glossy black. Having to baby it for scratches and fingerprints completely invalidates the use of a polycarbonate.

With respect to your affinity for red, the vast majority of folks seem to prefer something in the grey/black realm or clear like the prototypes. I would be happy with either of these, but when we start getting into colors, then the $600+ dollar Linux portable computer I'm funding starts to feel...

Looks great, just please, for the love of god, don't paint or coat this plastic. Even if it has little weird reflection things in the light (clear would probably solve that btw). I really don't want another painted portable that's going to chip and that I can't comfortably and confidentially...

Any updates on a formal push to pay the rest of our Pyras off. I want to finish it up and have a receipt that says "paid for in full" instead of constantly checking back for updates!

This is by far the best web browser I've used on Pandora. The othes are all unusuably slow, imo. even on 1ghz. Thanks for this great port!!

Do you have a Pandora? There are a number of launchers for popular games, like Diablo 2 or the Freespace series, that use the data files but can then interpret them for linux/ARM. You won't be playing newish Steam Linux games unless that work is done unless they explicitly support ARM, but...

On the topic of LCD cable reliability, ED, wondering what your process is for durability testing? Not questioning your prep at all, more just curious to know what steps you take if any? Or do you leave that to the vendors? Could be an insightful focus for a future video, and also reassuring for...

I can confirm that it happens on my Pandora even with 1.75. I thought I'd figured it out!

Ok, so, I'm a bit embarrassed to admit this, but during my pre-sleep web browsing ritual, I just saw that 72 is NOT the newest Pandora firmware; that we're up to 75, and that more importantly, that 74 introduced some major vsync stuff. Will update tomorrow and figure out if maybe this was user...

This, exactly!

I think for something you hold in your hands and primarily use your thumbs to type on, you want to find that balance that makes it easy for keys to be pressed despite the unusual torque angle and more limited range of motion. I'm glad to hear ED was trying to reduce the travel a bit, I thought...

If he's still short of the funds needed... Couldn't a lot of us just pay off the rest of our orders?

I refresh this site multiple times a day. Nice to hear you're dealing with the keymat folks in person! When you say the parts are ordered, you mean the screen, LCD cables, chips, etc, but not the cases or keymats yet, right? Looking forward to the next update and especially the next video...

Here you go (posting with the Pandora... I really can't wait for Pyra's speed improvements for web browsing):

Thank you for the suggestion! I gave it a shot (uploaded the .ini to the same folder the ROMs are in) and it didn't seem to have an effect on the tearing. My ROMs are zipped btw; not sure if that would affect anything. Appreciate the attempt to help (and thanks for everything you've done for...
