    YAPR

    Good review :) I am fully agreeing with most of your point on the hardware: It's really nice little device and has the best control (keyboard + nubs + dpad + shoulder button) you can find on this type of devie. I have to say I don't share the same opinion for the OS though. XFCE isn't...

    Where can I find screen protectors ?

    I personally have the invisible shield (Archos 605) one and I had no problem on the Pandora. It's a perfectly good screen protector. Their are a bit pricey though. (maybe you can use a coupon code - I know they have discount from time to time)...

    How high are you willing to overclock/volt?

    Do you know at what mhz the Pandora switch from OPP3 to OPP4 and from 4 to 5. I guess there is a way to check what is the current OPP level to figure that out or ?

    Cracked case because of puffy battery? Help me fix it please.

    I am sure you have already seen this topic: So I am just wandering if there is really no issue with trickle charging and lipo ? Anything that can improve the battery life is good in my opinion.

    Cracked case because of puffy battery? Help me fix it please.

    The situation about those puffing battery is definitely a little bit worrying. Not trying to be dramatic of anything here, but I am pretty sure this shouldn't happen. It doesn't seem to be a single isolated incident either. If a number of battery start to show the same problem in months / a...

    Release Scott Adams text adventures

    I've never tried any text-only adventure game (played plenty of lucasart and other though). Might give a try :) Is there one (or more) game in particular that would be recommended ? It's really nice to see all the software available on the Pandora... lot's of geeky stuff.

    How high are you willing to overclock/volt?

    For now I am defaulting at 750 (OPP3). I push it a bit further if I need too. I seem to be able to reach 1Ghz at OPP5 (not stable at OPP4). Didn't try any higher. Honestly I am not too worried about overvolting it but it just doesn't seem a necessity for normal usage. Hopefully in the...

    GOG games that run on Pandora

    Baldur's gate 1 + 2 should run with GemRB, although I doubt it is 100% and definitely beta. http://apps.open-pandora.org/cgi-bin/viewapp.pl?/Game/gemrb062.inf Duke Nukem 3d (using engine) http://apps.open-pandora.org/cgi-bin/viewapp.pl?/Game/eduke32SDL.inf Rise of the triad (using...

    Typing in Japanese?

    Angstrom repos are aleardy configured (or at least some of them. I am not familiar with Angstrom) You need to do a refresh first: sudo opkg update Then you can list available package (you might want to dump that into a text file) sudo opkg list finaly to install sudo opkg...

    Typing in Japanese?

    From what I remember Kanjipad is very strict about stroke number and direction. It really isn't a very good handwriting recognition system. There are a few open-source project such as Tegaki which seams more promising but I don't know if there are quite there yet. I've just tried getting...

    Crash upon first boot

    When you power up the Pandora and only the SDcard led is on and nothing happens, that usually means the bootloader is corrupted / missing. What's strange is that you then got the unit to start... nevertheless I think you should try to reflash the bootleader. The Pandora is basically...

    New to this

    Someone correct me if I am wrong but technically I think it only turn off the backlight and not the whole display in recent version of the OS. I would not worry about burn-in... shouldn't be a problem really.

    ScummVM

    A bluetooth mouse is also a good way to go. I've got a "old" logitech and it works fine. Just had to paid it using the gui. I need to play some of those ScummVM game. I love those old lucasart adventure game.

    Release Another Test Wifi Driver

    Just installed it :) It starts the wifi directly when you install the package. Tried creating a new wireless network (ad-hoc). Well, I am not sure how it's suppose to work but network manager seemed to be doing something. What I am sure tough is that afterward I couldn't connect to my WPA2...

    Late to the party

    Once you get your Pandora the first thing is to plug it in order to charge it. Then I would install the latest Hotfix (full flash): http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php?%2Ftopic%2F2080-hotfix-5-released%2Fpage__pid__37497#entry37497 Then install the community codec pack. There is a...

    Fully Working Pandora ?

    I have got one of the few refurbished that were sold on ebay. The top of the lid (the part with the Pandora logo) does have a few darker "spot" but that's just nitpicking... especially for a refurbished one. It looks as new otherwise. (well I am sure I'll put a few starches, I am definitely...

    Pandora software the pandora lacks

    For Gimp you can try to install it though Debian. It should work OK. I have Lyx and openoffice installed this way. What I mean exactly is this: It's called Pandebian and you can put run Debian on a SDcard within the Pandora OS.

    How do i order?

    The info is on the website: http://www.openpandora.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=97&Itemid=34&lang=en It might not be very clear but the "delivered to you within the next 7 days" means that it will be shipped within 7days not that you will receive it in 7day. Well if you're...

    A schedule? For real? (2011 - 02 - 24)

    That sentence definitely confusing. It sounds like 500$ is the price including 7days shipping. Somebody that is not aware of the Pandora project in detail would definitely think so I believe.
