    Once I Get My Pandora I'm Gonna...

    Your most noble sacrifice will not have been in vain, and tales of your labours shall echo though these forums as chronicles of legend 'till the end of days! o)~_~)^ -salute- As for me, I'll probably start loading mine up with ebooks and begin praying that Cortex Command gets ported with all...

    Screens Of The Future

    Very pretty indeed. I'd love to see that sort of display tech in a Pandora, not to mention most other display devices. :3

    Here Is What Will Be Happening.

    Speaking for myself, based on all the data life has presented me with so far, I have come to the conclusion that the universe probably came about just because it damn well felt like it (speaking metaphorically, that is), and in fact has no creator-entity associated with it. In fact, I think...

    Screens Of The Future

    Hmm. I have to say I'm not terribly knowledgeable when it comes to screen technologies; I'll have to look into that one. That said, it is basically being marketed as the crossroads between e-ink and standard LCDs, so it'd make sense if it suffers a little for being a generalist. There may...

    Screens Of The Future

    They're working on 10 watt HDTVs or something right now, or so I understand. Or at least considering an application like that. It is confirmed that the tech I linked works very well outside and in brightly lit rooms with properly saturated colors and the ability to play video happily, although...

    Screens Of The Future

    Yes, I've heard the same things, although I've not ever used an e-ink device myself so I can't speak from experience. The technology that sparked my questions, 3Qi, is detailed here: http://www.pixelqi.com/ And there are apparently other competitors coming out with their own rival...

    Screens Of The Future

    Bah - sleep is for the weak! But while I'm sure that's true regarding software control, I'm planning to be outdoors a lot with the Pandora, so killing the backlight doesn't help me deal with sunlight, sadly. Improved outdoor visibility is very desirable to me. And yes, larger batteries are...

    Screens Of The Future

    Thanks for the reply kingoddball. I suspected I'd get an answer like that; somewhat disappointing. Although I never did have any real complaints regarding the original screen, I must admit I am tempted by the idea of reducing the Pandora's energy consumption to almost 1/5th of what it...

    Screens Of The Future

    Hello all, I was recently reading some articles about upcoming next-gen screen designs, and some of the upcoming technologies seem very exciting. For example, I am very much interested in the 3Qi screen technology and others like it, which seem to be finally uniting the strengths of E-Ink and...

    Here Is What Will Be Happening.

    Thank you for your reassurance, Michael; it is indeed an uncomfortable moment in the Pandora community. I'm really hoping recycled pellets and a lack of extra finish, which will in fact be present on the final units, is all we're dealing with here, but I for one intend to shut up until we've...

    Here Is What Will Be Happening.

    Speaking for myself, I'm operating under the assumption (perhaps incorrect) that this obvious marring is present only because this is a test case, and that mass production would avoid this degree of obvious imperfections. If not, however, I would very much agree...

    Here Is What Will Be Happening.

    Haah...while I'm honestly rather disheartened by these latest developments, I can't help but think that having a functionally complete if slightly under-polished Pandora in my hands and getting on with my plans for it is better than waiting longer for a perfect case from the get-go. Especially...

    Oh, I'm sure he'll be fine once he downs a bottle or two of vodka... ;) Here's hoping for the 5th, though!

    Pandora Vs Zaurus: Screen Size Comparison

    ...sorry, I'm not sure I quite get what you're saying. Is this showing that the screen protector will not fit a Pandora screen quite right? Or is this a different, but similar, screen than the one the Pandora uses? 'Cause I was under the impression that the ZAGG protector mentioned in that...

    The Therapist's Office

    Doc G., ever since the latest update I've been struck by these uncanny visions of doom and destruction. It's almost like the very universe doesn't want the Pandora to be made! Could the fates by trying to avert disaster? Perhaps craigix and EvilDragon are wielding powers they do not fully...

    Augmented Reality!

    Just set yourself up an AR distribution, load in that public Pandora 3D model released by OP, and hold the magic paper card in your hands, my friend. Just make sure you're looking at your computer monitor and not your hands or the effect will be ruined. ;) The end result isn't half-bad...
