    Could the pandora / pyra / or next generation model be much thinner?

    Obviously ED and the team can do as they please, I just don't really see the point, at least when it comes to the lid. Case related changes have been such a bane to this project, with so many delays, it seems as though it would just be additional cost burden and project lag. Can certainly see...

    Could the pandora / pyra / or next generation model be much thinner?

    Once the case is finished, that should be the final case for this company as long as possible. If we never designed a new case again, it would be great, and I think that was the point, what with how the CPU board is designed to be upgradeable. The form is for function, with aesthetics working...

    SOLD! Pandora - First Batch (UK Only)

    Haha! A fair comparison. Though I think the silver sparkle is a little better ;) Anyway, I have a buyer now, thanks for everyone's time.

    SOLD! Pandora - First Batch (UK Only)

    I'd just like to add that any offers or similar would be happily considered so do let me know. Not particularly looking for an exchange but would at least give some guitar gear (pedals etc) some thought.

    SOLD! Pandora - First Batch (UK Only)

    Hey! Sorry, I've had a busy weekend and hadn't been back to check. As requested, the picture: Really sorry its sideways. Can't seem to get TinyPic to accept the rotated version. Levi, thanks for the table comment! My wife did the design and transferred and painted it on the table (she is...

    SOLD! Pandora - First Batch (UK Only)

    THIS HAS NOW BEEN SOLD, THANKS I've been agonising over this for quite a while now but I think it may be time for me to accept that having a Pandora stuck in a drawer is a waste of such a great device. My one has had quite a life. It was a very early first batch CC edition which suffered from...

    Action button labels, again

    maybe instead of + and -, we could have wind and heart, and instead of a Pyra / home button we could just have CALL PLANET!

    USB hubs

    I wish that the Pandora only needed hubs for multiple devices. I hate that if I want to pair up a controller I need to go buy a hub for that single use because instead I just don't bother and I end up not using my Pandora in that way. I have absolutely no other use for a hub so buying one seems...

    Programming

    Starter goal: install geany on pandora, find a small script online, get it to run in terminal Status: achieved! Achievement unlocked: If at first you don't succeed (took me about 20 attempts to get it to run in terminal. I thought I was doing it all wrong but it was my fault for not being case...

    Programming

    Hmm based on the reviews the third one has a real game focus so if thats what you want it for, it could be a good place to start. The other two seem to have two different purposes. The first is described as like learning english by reading the dictionary which sounds like its entirely thorough...

    Programming

    Someone gave me a pdf copy of Beginning Python: From Novice to Professional published by Apress 2 years ago which seems okay so far. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Beginning-Python-From-Novice-Professional/dp/159059519X I gave it a go 2 years ago and felt a little more out of my depth with the...

    Programming

    Thanks for the replies everyone, you are all awesome! I'm going to keep it basic for now with geany and scale up as I need to. Been downloading a few android apps with courses as well as some of the pandora programming books from the repo code books programs so hopefully I'll make some progress...

    Programming

    My Pandora has been slightly neglected for a while now but this thread has me pretty inspired to throw myself at some learning. Going through the posts here however, I am a little unsure if I am going about things wrong. Is the Pandora a good place to be trying to set up a programming...

    Some thoughts about the board

    You know, I think this is kinda to be expected in a whole lot of ways. This community in its Pandora focused iteration has been active for over 7 years now. Pre-Orders started in 2008 and the devices started really getting to people in 2010 which was 5 years ago. For a product with not actually...

    Nothing to show, but a lot happened.

    This might be a little... out of the box, but how about rather than cramming as much as possible onto the Pyra for full time use, maybe look into the addition of extra shoulder buttons on some kind of removable case like the 3DS circle pad pro. Realistically, four shoulder buttons might not be...

    Would a bluetooth headset work rather than being directly wired for phonecalls?

    Wii U game sales

    I was always a pretty big fan of Nintendo World Cup on the Gameboy and NES. A bit less focus on it being truly like soccer and just being really fun!

    Wii U game sales

    I am tempted to think that the Wii and its success was really a matter of great timing for the motion control, Wii Sports being marketed so successfully as a family game and being at what I think was a peak of a family gaming boom. The Move and Kinect feel to me to have shown that motion...

    Were there ever violent Game Boy games?

    Its weird but as a kid it didn't occur to me that games might be made badly or hard to play, i just got on with it and i think i either completed this or got close when i was surprisingly young i.e. 7 or 8. Of course now when i pick it up it is unplayable!

    The biggest computer/gaming mistake you have ever made.

    the impression i got from SEGA was that they were trying so hard to be ahead of the game with their consoles that they outpaced the coffers of the gamers and the lifespan of consoles ended up short lived. American Release Dates: 1985 NES 1986 Master System 1989 Game Boy 1989 Sega Genesis...
