Thank for your tip! I think about this, but I beware about USB sockets on the EXT port sides and even right shoulder button could be in the way (finger lay over it respectively).

This video push me to think about LCD cables problem. What is bad on those cables? OK, I understand that it is not clearly visible on the video, but (If I Remember Correctly) LCD cables should be damaged by tin from soldered speaker wires. And I can't imagine how it could be done this way. :-)...

OK, I'm little stuck with this, but I'm decided to get into Eagle. Shame on me, neither today nor tomorrow. I'll hope for Thursday nigh. So, any help with this staying appreciated. --- EDIT: It is not must be in Eagle. Any PCB designing SW that is free for hobby use and gives gerber output...

I try Eagle and I guess that posted design is without bottom side. I thing that guy only draw what I suggest him without thinking about other instructions in email :-/ I'm just sitting in work and catching release date, so no time to messing with CAD SW which I don't how to use it. So, if...

Weird, I unpack this into "eagle" folder in my documents (win 7) and open it in Eagle flawlessly. I'll download free Eagle version 5.11. PCB seems to be designed in Eagle, version 5.08 EDIT: I try to learn some minimum in Eagle, as I have basic PCB design, maybe I manage to shape it.

4/ I'll ask manufacturer. I think that it is manufactured by some kind CNC anyway, so shouldn't be an issue. If it not costs too much it it worth. 6/ OK, I'll just don't check it with connector drawing exactly. 7/ I see. I this case I'll rather let Cu cover PCB on the very edge. In various...

Hi. Actually, I'm pretty lame in designing PCB. So this is only my idea and other guy designing it in Eagle. But he has no practice and low experience in overall - he studying and knowing how to use Eagle which I'm not used to use. To clarify some question from my point of view: 1/ Yes, I...

:-) That's totally OK - we say "measure twice cut ones". Yes, but... OK, I'm not familiar with any CAD SW, so I ask and other boy does it. Attached picture is first draft modified in MSPaint :-| I definitely think that trough hole PCB will be better, but could it be done in such small form PCB...

Pads only - it is because drawing will be the same on both sides of PCB. maybe holes will be better but I don't know if drawing with holes fits well. Hmm, I'll try.

BoB - Break out Board. And space between connectors rows is 1.2 mm (by drawing) which is enough. I even see 1 mm thick PCB (double sided).

I'll type already here - sorry for duplicity, but I think that not everybody read TV-out thread. So, I'm going to let manufacture circa one thousand tiny PCB for soldering directly into connector and allowing easy soldering wires to it. It should be something like this but in better quallity...

I ordered 100 m 7 line shielded cable at last. This allow to make length on demamd. On one end will be tinyBoB soldered into EXT port connector and on opposite end it will has another tiny board for easy soldering short cables with demanded connectors. I'll test if longer cable can be make (5 or...

I have about 10% drain per 8 hours if power off. If I remove fully charged battery for few days, it stay fully charged. I'll do power of and even restart with right shoulder button pressed and then choice "power off" from tiny boot menu - loosing charge anyway... Should this be some HW problem...

Pin 1 should be on upper right, if You are looking straight on Pandora's rear side: _____________ / . . . . . 1 \ | . . . . . . | |_____________| Now, check BoB schematic :-) B, b, b, But wait! On schematic is pin 1 dedicated to Audio R out...

Actually yes, we knew this. But nobody willing to sell them even if we ask for a few pieces. This is why WizardStan does this and we support him. :-) --- Lets go to bright side. Can You provide PCB layout for BoB? I can make one myself, but why if there is already one. :-)

OK, because I have nothing to do (beside my job, wife, children, garden,...) till connectors and other material for cables arrive, I sorting tiny PCBs for break out EXT port conductors. I thing that if I let make hundred or two of them it will be cheap. And messing with EXT port will be much...

Try insert 2 SD cards and load few kilos of data on them ;-) /me couldn't resist

In one moment EvilDragon (IIRC) publish original model without internal structure. Then MWeston (IIRC) say that this is not good idea due to possibility of allowing cheap non original case clone. ED remove drawing from website and politely ask community, not to give out already downloaded files...

This is possible even on bare Pandora. Just download file from the internet and store it on SD card. Pandora really is personal computer, just small one.

Then best thing You could do is to put SD card into SD card reader (nowadays computers or laptops usually have it) an load games directly on the card. I do this even with my Pandora. Anyway - You can use any mini USB cable You already have. :-)
