    Wi-Fi Encrption?

    Stupid comparisons, lulzfish. DS doesn't support WPA, it's far too weak to handle it. iPhone doesn't support USB Mass Storage, the filesystem is hfs+ and not FAT32. I could name off hundreds more. That's still trivial. I've written POC code to sniff the data on my phone, and upload it to my...

    Craigix, Free Units To Devs?

    I would love to see that code. I have never, ever had to use goto in C. It might be the easy way out, but I'm sure there was another approach you could have taken.

    Craigix, Free Units To Devs?

    TI-BASIC was my first ever language, and although I've tried to put it behind me I still know what that does. Unfortunately, there are much easier ways to break their calculators. Especially since a few years ago, one of the members from Detached Solutions leaked how you unlock flash (it's only...

    Question On Ordering Board Only

    I'd hardly say they have 'more on them', that's only the case if you purchase a ton of addon boards, and then it is bigger than the BeagleBoard. The only thing I can think of the BB doesn't have stock is the BT/WiFi on the Overo Fire. But if you want USB, HDMI out, standard SD (not micro)...

    Found Two Batteries For Pandora?

    Kinda like how variable APR is screwing over millions of Americans. It's a good thing that that isn't becoming illegal... oh wait, it is. It's deceptive marketing, and it should be banned/illegal. Sure, the battery 'technically' says it's the same capacity as a AA, and yes people should think...

    Found Two Batteries For Pandora?

    Not really the case, as they charge 400% what a AA battery with the same capacity costs. It'd be like McDonalds selling a Big Mac and a Super Big Mac. Big Mac costs $3, Super Big Mac costs $12. The only different? The box is slightly bigger on the second. It's a downright scam, no matter which...

    Wifi Module?

    I understood channels and that they overlapped, but I was misunderstanding the way radio waves work. I think I've got a better grasp on it, thanks for the clarification :).

    Wifi Module?

    Erm, excuse my ignorance on how radio waves work, but 2.4ghz spectrum is 2,400,000,000 to 2,499,000,000 (roughly, depends on area and legal status of available channels)... but this would mean 99,000,000 wireless devices in the same area? I somehow doubt we're going to saturate that fast. With...

    Wifi Module?

    802.11g isn't a full 54mbit, that's theoretical best. As in, same level as the router, 3 meters away with direct vision, no other devices on the network, and no radio interference. The actual, real world case is more like 24mbit. I'm not positive, but I believe 802.11g reserves half of the...

    Question On Ordering Board Only

    Don't get a Gumstix for this, please. You'll be overpaying for inferior hardware. Go with a BeagleBoard. Gumstix is designed mostly for robotics and small electronics that a BB layout couldn't possibly fit in.

    Smartq V7 Vs Pandora

    You have no idea, I almost canceled my Pandora preorder for it. I would take something that amazing over the Pandora, sorry to say. The concept is just absolutely amazing. craig, seriously, Pandora v2... look at the Touch Book. I will personally buy 5 just to get it made.

    Smartq V7 Vs Pandora

    Thank you for the post, I was actually trying to PM you just a few hours ago about this! I was debating picking up a Touchbook, but have decided against it because of your review. It's a shame, though. The Touch Book could be amazing... I was seriously impressed with it until I found their...

    Found Two Batteries For Pandora?

    Thanks for linking my old post so I didn't have to :P. And I would clearly not trust DX at all for batteries after seeing that. I have bought a few items from them before, and they turned up okay. /shrug.

    Found Two Batteries For Pandora?

    they're all fake hun if you'er truly wildcamping you won't want any electronics with you, ut if you have to bring it are you best off with a solar charger or a harger that hooks up with your car battery.

    Excuse my ignorance, but why no Saturn emulation? I've never owned one, let alone play one, but other than having extremely complicated hardware and an odd controller...?

    New Games

    Google wouldn't prejudice based on design, imho. Anyway, it's not like they have a choice. Android can be installed and sold with it if they want. They only thing they CAN'T do would be to include the official Android Market, which if something that Google sells to companies making handhelds...

    Firmware Testing

    Glad to hear you're using SLiM, but this means the majority of the boot up time isn't Xfce related, so PMenu will be about as slow... kinda hard to believe Xfce takes 10 seconds to start up, you sure this is correct? My old 1ghz Pentium M can start it up quicker.

    Pandora Sound Hardware

    *coughs* Yes, there is audio input on TV Out cable, in the headphone jack (with adapter or headphones that support it), and the built in mic.
