As you probably have seen, it is difficult to compare x86 CPUs to ARM CPUs. Besides USB bandwidth, system bus bandwidth could be a show stopper for us as well. Since you already have a unit it seems, you'll have to be the guinea pig on this one :) .

As for legitimacy - That is a concern even if these are coded into the game. I'd suggest uploading trophies to an external server where they are rated and revised by the community. Another would store which trophies you have earned. A server can be fairly easily coded to pick up cheaters who...

Of course, this would be a community-sized task. If we had the tools available, and it was technically possible, I think it would be kind of cool to upload your own trophies for others to try for.

I've had an idea for getting an accomplishments system to work with emulators, I'd like to know the feasibility of this... At the core, an emulator would read a configuration text file for a specific ROM and check to see if certain areas of memory match specific values. For instance, if you...

I also noticed on http://www.openpandora.org - the "Forums" link leads directly to the gp32x forums from the blog page, but leads to the forums portal (where you can select which forum to go to) from the Home page. It has been that way for a while...

I personally would love a Regional Keyboard Layout, especially if Japanese is doable. That would make my life so much easier.... If it was even possible to custom order a keyboard layout for a Pandora to accomplish this (at additional cost) I would be very happy.

3D Mark 2001 isn't a very good demo, as it only benchmarks the "raw" performance of modern cards. In other words, clock rate is more important than feature set. The SGX has much more advanced shaders than what was around in 3DMark 2001's era. Doom 3 is most likely doable at the Pandora's...

Admittedly I'm much more green in Python than C, but I've had a really hard time squeezing performance out of Python. I'm running on a Quad Core system with loads of memory and things seem sluggish, so I'm really worried about a disaster once I move my code Pandora-side. Think I'm better off...

I'm also in the group that finds open a terminal in Linux just in general easier to use than Windows. They're two different animals- In Windows you get run around in circles trying to find an option buried in a GUI. You're expected to know where to find something. Every new version you're run...

It was also mentioned/demonstrated that the heavier cousin of MPEG-4, h.264, would work at 720p as well.

For myself, as well as others, I believe providing a link to a how-to on TRANZFERS would be a good idea, at least somewhere in this thread.

PlayAsia. Thats where I found the first signs of homebrew handheld consoles, and it is a good balance between extreme niche and mainstream in terms of customer base.

By team of people - what do you mean? Do you have a tiny little army of capable people at your disposal? Why not just have them do it for you? ......Is the general response you're going to get. The second I saw "mmo" is the second I gave up taking this seriously. I really hate to rail...

Shouldn't cheap out on the accessories. Chrome or brushed metal, with some good weight to it. Classy.

Digital Distribution all the way. If I were developing a game, I'd open source the engine and sell the assets that way. Since I'm developing the delivery method as well I wouldn't really worry about piracy TBH. It will happen one way or another, and DRM will only hurt the legitimate users.

Actually, the majority are, however some utilize proprietary means of communication. Don't ask me why, I didn't design them. Also, even the standardized ones may use nonstandard little extras (such as volume buttons). Still, your evaluation that 99.9% of the devices out there working is correct.
