    Linux Wall-wart

    Hmm, $100 for that tiny "wall wart" computer - I wonder if it really is $100, or is it $100 but you need to add on this, and this and .... x.x . And I'll bet the price goes up if you wanted one in the UK! QUOTE >Awesome that these things are being placed at the "disposable" price range. I know...

    How Is Your Re-order Status?

    ??? Reorder status? I re-ordered back in November, on the 26th of last year to be precise. Was there a re-re-order? ljones

    Pandora For Kids: Looking For A Kind Soul To Test Video Playback

    Yep, I think he put in a few clips on his "TV Offal" series. Wikipedia entry on xmas tapes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_tape This site contains an audio clip of the "zippy swears" xmas tape ('celebrity swears'). Has done since '98! (Watch out though, there are scarry public...

    Poll: Do You Like Keybord Font.

    I must admit I'm one of the few(!) people who don't mind the font chosen in the render. Really though (within reason) almost any font will do so long as there aren't copyright or licencing issues. If I had to choose though I'd go with something that looked different rather than (yawn) yet...

    Video Glasses

    The video glasses you can buy now for any sort of sane price (i.e. don't cost thousands) aren't really worth it. The field of vision is very low on these devices, so you would presumably only get an image right in front of you. Right now, these things aren't much more than expensive toys. It'll...

    How Hard Is It To Make A Game If I Have Never Programmed?

    I guess the best idea is to just try stuff and get practsie. Which language you choose to program in is entirely down to your own personal choice. Try a few and see which ones you like. For example, you might get totally confused by C but might take to (say) Lua. But the good news is for almost...

    Unofficial Promotional Pandora Poster

    Speaking of posters, what happened to the one with the picture of a pandora flying over a field with the caption "I WANT TO BELIEVE" underneath? ljones

    Release Keymat On Devboard!

    Intresting, though I hope the keyboard mat there is durable! I'm guessing this is a keyboard of the "dome switch" variety? I understand a keyboard made of actual individual switches/keys would be completely unpractical for the pandora, but I'm just wondering how long that keyboard will last. A...

    Extra Features That People Wish The Most

    I'd agree with a lot that I've read here. My main thing though I'd like to see with any new version of the pandora would be the removal of svideo and in its place some sort of digital output. Reason why? Number one svideo looks awful, even next to vga. Also, for sake of argument let's say...

    Dec Update

    Getting back to the render, and looking at the picture at the start of this thread I must admit I'm not really worried (within reason) about what the pandora's case looks like. It is how well the guts inside do (or don't). So long as it is reliable, is usable and won't break the first time you...

    How Big Is The Pandora?

    Intresting comparison - the pandora is quite a bit shorter and not as deep as my old Toshiba Liberetto 50CT (Think small old pentium 75 laptop with 16MB ram). Thickness is about the same. Wonder what the screensize of the pandora is? ljones

    Mail From Ed (with Estimated Shipping Dates)

    What went wrong earlier on for the pandora not to be released back then? Wasn't around here back then! ljones

    Pandora Possible Alt. Browser For Pandora?

    I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not (and my apologies if this has already been discussed!) but I was wondering maybe an intresting alternative to firefox 3 on pandora might be the "dillo" web browser. It appears to have receives some activity just recently (october) and there's source...

    Blog Update 11/23/08

    Intresting blog :) a pity that no pandoras will surface now maybe not for this year. But on the other hand it is best not to rush, don't want a half-baked pandora with lots of problems or issues which were never found. It must be pretty complicated and time-consuming work to try to find as many...

    Phew :) . My refund came as well. I used the details on the Nov 8th email to do a bank transfer (their new bank is barclays bank?) so I hope all went well! ljones

    Post Here When Your Refund Clears

    Ta for that :) . I got the email on Nov 8th but no sign of any refund, and I've been checking daily (I'm in the UK too). I've just emailed openpandora with the email above so hopefully I'll get some good news :) ! ljones

    Re-order Emails Going Out Now

    I must admit I'm getting a tad concerned now. I'm in the UK and I did get an email back on Nov 8. Though I've not had a refund yet, and I've been checking the account I used to pay for my pandora daily. I'm really hoping my refund will come through next week. ljones

    Re-order Emails Going Out Now

    I wonder if I'm affected? I'm in the UK and I paid by debit card but although the card is labelled "visa" it's also labelled "nationwide", as I'm with a building society rather than a bank. I've not yet got an email -- am I affected? ljones
