Don't bother with homebrew, Emulation is where it's at. D.

I'd like to know this too, as I can clock past 1GHz on the old HF4 - I don't want to change voltage, as I don't need to. D.

Actually, while we're on about buttons - Craig said in another thread that to fix my Zero key, I needed to "add a bit more carbon" to the keymat. How would I go about this, exactly? I might as well fix my A button and Right shoulder button while I'm at it. D.

I'm just going to carry on like you didn't actually say that - let's call it a failure of your debating skills, yes? You're obviously stuck for a decent retort to my arguments, so let's put it another way: Which of my points above, which prevent me from buying a Canoe, are actually incorrect...

Erm, no, you're wrong - go back and read my posts again. Pandora got the design right and have, at last, delivered what they promised. They haven't done what got GPH into so much trouble and oh... I dunno, used shitty controls TWICE or THREE TIMES IN A ROW, or failed to deliver a Wifi addon that...

Look up! You'll miss it! D.

That's not what I meant, and it's pretty obvious it's not. GPH screwed up, the GP2X was a huge disappointment and so was the Wiz - they even tried to use two D-pads for god's sakes, and their hardware problems are inexcusable - no Wireless dongle (which was promised) for the Wiz and that screen...

Pretty much - I basically call a compositor at 50fps, which dumps the graphics generated by the language out to a SDL window's surface. Performance is not good on the Pandora, and is roughly 1/5th that of my 366mhz PC. Of course, it may be my code (or the FPC ARM cross-compiler) :) I'd just...

Has there been any work on this at all now? I know Notaz is busy with other things, but my BASIC interpreter really could do with accelerated SDL, at least for graphics (I've got a specially modified BASS library for sound, so I only need the graphics sections of SDL). D.

So let me get this straight. You're moaning about the lack of software developed specifically for the Canoe, but that you'd a lot happier if you had a bunch of GP2X games to play on it? Is that what you're saying? On-topic - I develop for the Pandora now, having moved from the GP2X. I gave the...

So does my Mrs, and the only way I could keep her off my Pandora was by telling her that Farmville won't run. Sorry lads, but I gots to adblock this thread. D.

Just had a bash on Road Rash - at 900Mhz, plays sweet and constant fullspeed with music off... Enable music though and when you ride up a hill the game slows down noticeably. Disable music and the slowdowns no longer happen. Only happens when you go uphill! How odd :) D.

Very nice - two things: 1. It would be good to be able to hide (and later show) the panoramic streetview image, thus devoting more space to the map 2. Search fails every time with an error. D.

My Pandora button only started opening the "Start" menu a couple of days ago, which is pretty typical of how it's behaved so far... PNDs have only just started showing up in the menu too - I thought that the PND auto-discovery was only for minimenu, but three or four days ago they started...

The Amiga version was certainly the original, the PC version was a complete rewrite sticking very close to the original 68k source (Frontier was written entirely in 68k Asm, iirc). However, it needed a decent Amiga to run at an acceptable speed - a basic 1200 wouldn't cut it, and you'd not get...

Ahh, my mistake then. I may give this hotfix thing a go. D.

I downloaded it last night, not bad. It occasionally crashes to a black screen with blinking underscore cursor which requires the Pandora to be hard-reset, but the browsing experience is excellent. A couple of other things: 1. No close button, you have to use the tools menu to "sign out" 2...

This. Battery life is bad enough with the lid closed as it is, and have you felt how hot the Pandora's lid gets when the LED is on and the lid closed? I was going to download and test this HF5, but having seen this I don't think I'll bother until this gets fixed. Surely not shutting off the...

I need to get to know PNDs a bit better, so I'll do it. It gives me a chance to get Lazarus dirty - though the resulting executable will likely be quite large as Lazarus only does static linking at present. D.

Is there any way to get this to run in full screen? That window border is pretty ugly ;-) D.
