    Analyzing 4GB RAM

    I just didn't know If mms was needed when texting pictures. I'll probably get a webcam to use with mine so I can keep talking with family on the go or taking pictures for work. Not needed if android will work out of the box but better if it worked natively on Debian.

    What about MMS media texts? I don't think it uses the same protocol as SMS does it?

    Analyzing 4GB RAM

    Now that you mention it, if Android does boot on the pyra do you think voice/data would work correctly?

    Analyzing 4GB RAM

    Best case scenario I'll be happy with 4gb and some breathing room for future ram hungry programs. Worst case scenario I'll still be happy with a 2gb pyra. If it ends up taking a long time updating the board in the future the 2 extra GB will definitely give some breathing room while we wait on...

    14 set of Ubuntu repository disks from osdisc.com My internet would take forever to install instead of just buying the DVD equivalent.

    I'm out of ideas for news-titles

    I still say it's just a patience thing. Only problem is going to be is a money issue lost where people get impatient and buy a gpd instead of waiting. I'm sure he'll still sell allot of devices, but the question you should be asking is are you willing to sacrifice quality to have a device right...

    The Keyboard Thread

    Any opinion on the razor ornata chroma keyboard? I've had mine about a month and it's been pretty decent for me so far.

    I'm out of ideas for news-titles

    Just looking at the various gpd discussion forums and websites with all the discussions on faulty equipment, do you think the pyra will be a better experience in comparison? It's one of the main reasons I'd rather wait for a better polished mobile device when if the gpd has better specs. What...

    My journey into atheism and theories on life

    God said ,"Let there be light." And there was light. Boom. Civilization version 0.1 alpha 19. New game requires another big bang. (1: continue? 2: new game? 3: quit?)

    Still working away at the Ford radio. Needed more tools and ended up getting an electric drill and 3/4 ratchet. Didn't really need them but will make things go smoother and more efficient in tight spaces. Just an excuse to buy them mostly lol

    Weekly Pyra Preorder Stats

    We'll all just have to do a review of our pyras when we get them to get Ed more units sold. That way he can make profit and finally take a long break

    SID of the day :)

    I already like what I'm hearing. Skipping around randomly through the different sids and they all sound pretty good. It'll give me something to listen to while backing up the classical cd's I got from Goodwill today :)

    What have you bought recently?

    Car speakers, wiring, cheap amp, wood to make a speaker box for the trunk, and a new radio unit for the dash. Putting a radio in my nephew's car but never dealt with early 80's Ford's . Wiring is s mess and the fuse box isn't being easily found. My uncle has purchased 200 worth of parts and I've...

    I'm out of ideas for news-titles

    Funny you mention Minecraft issues with ram. I've gone to devs of Minetest and shown that I've really had to tone down on mods just to scrape under the limit they placed in their coding. I could easily see myself using 3gigs of RAM with another free just to make the game still playable without...

    Installing/Using WINE on the Pyra!

    If we ever get an Android port that runs well on the Pyra you could try Crossover Linux. It would probably still not be enough processing power to be playable though.

    I'm out of ideas for news-titles

    When you get the software side figured out for the board and RAM, think you could make a wiki of how you set it up? I'd really like to make a minimal arch build when the pyras are in our hands to work with :)

    Open... and close... and open...

    Maybe wait until everything else is ironed out to discuss the RAM? If it ends up being the only problem left at the end then it'd be a major issue.
