I'd never use the Pandora for a Personal organiser, it's too big and bulky. I need something small and light that fits in my pocket, so I use an Android-based phone. The irony is that I can type faster on my phone (that doesn't have a keyboard) than I can on the Pandora !

Newer mame ports require more memory and more processing power that the console simply doesn't (didn't?) have. The Wiz version is a port of the GP2X version as far as I'm aware, and considering the amount of changes made, upgrading the mame version will require a LOT of work. Pandora may get a...

I didn't think Eye-fi used drivers. It acts as a standard SD-Card. You takes your photos and it uploads them automatically and wirelessly to wherever you want?

It's fine if it's isn't connected to the internet :) Then again, I've not installed any updates in the last year or so. I've installed the main service packs (1,2,3) gradually over time, but I never bother with Windows update. If it aint broke, don't fix it. I've seen too many "Our hotfix broke...

Moving to off-topic as I fail to see how this is Pandora-related.

OK. Moved to LOL files.

[Off-topic posts deleted] . . . . Nah, not really. We are not that evil :) I'd completely forgotten about that cardboard cutout. Nice one, Hobbyman.

Argh! I keep hearing that everywhere. Even colleagues are putting it in there emails! That meerkat needs to be shot!

£80 a pair, once a year. I can wear them much longer, but I prefer to renew them each year.

Same here, more or less (It was £137). They asked for the address I wanted it registered to. They didn't seem to care about my address, and they certainly didn't care about proof of address. The fun part is that if you go down the PAYG route, you can even walk into a store, give them some cash...

It's >=, so anything 1A or greater will work. Just make sure the polarity is correct, or the gp2x goes up in smoke.

Here's something to throw into the fire: The OMAP3530 contains proprietary code in ROM that is run on power up. Therefore you can't delete it and you can't view the source code.

I could understand your concerns (to some extent) if the Pandora was a phone which is permanently connected to the internet like most "Smart" phones these days, but people are unlikely to hack your device and obtain your secrets via the 3D module. Yes, it's possible that some software may...

As far as I'm aware, the dev boards are not for sale. They belong to OpenPandora, and so devs can't sell them. For development work, you can purchase a beagle board however.

If TI licensed the chip for everything you could do with it, each one would cost $100, and people would be complaining about paying for things that don't want or need. There's no need to pay the license fees until you have a product ready to send out the door in most cases (With some you...

They do in a fashion. Following the C64 emulator was quite fun, specially when they removed it because a backdoor allowed you to access C64 BASIC! I've no idea what they were trying to stop. Maybe they don't want people creating unauthorised emulators by coding them in C64 BASIC... (That would...

If you want to transfer files (via internet or LAN) at 10MBytes/sec, then you need a PC, not a portable gaming device :) The SD port are variable speed and voltage. In the default modes, the bus runs at 25Mhz (~12MB/sec) and in high speed mode, it runs at 50Mhz (~24MB/sec). I know theres some...

I think he means no one here is capable of making the processor go faster without using software, which is true. RedBaron, if you want to make it go faster using hardware instead of software, you can always alter the reference clock on the PCB. You'll still have the same side effects however...

The Pandora doesn't have a harddrive, and you shouldn't have a problem with a class 2 sdhc card.

No one can change the speed from turn-on, as that would mean changing the embedded rom in the MMSP2. The closest you'll get is the bootloader, but speeding up the processor there would be daft, and since if you DO change it, the gp2xmenu changes it back anyway. So it's easier to just change on a...
