I can't see the large size render, but+1 for sans serif, never liked those serifs +1 for . and , on buttons not sure about ctrl = select, but I might be convinced. At least it's in the middle and reachable with both hands. +1 for more punctuation marks and fewer non-english characters on the...

I, for one, am looking forward to the first "un-boxing, then re-boxing in a box I made myself at Kinkos and then un-boxing again" video on youtube. :lol:

Awesome. And I think this means things are more or less on schedule as per the mini roadmap... QUOTE * Case Design: January 15th * Case Prototyping: approx. 1-2 weeks later * Final production and delivery: approx. 2 - 4 weeks later Now, those keyboard buttons; would we expect those to sit a...

3/6/09 12:15:18 GMT (March 6 for those with a different date format...) Perhaps a little optimistic, but you can't argue with symmetry like that.

Truthfully the OLPC situation is quite a specific one, for every one you bought, you also donated one to the the third world. And it was only open to the US and Canada. So in this situation, the kids and the guy only got OLPCS because I bought them. Go me. One might argue that cancelling a...

I bought 3 OLPCs and sold 2 on eBay (for whatever the market would bear). I ended up selling them to a guy in Europe who hadn't been able to order when the G1G1 program was on and the markup offset some of the price on the OLPC that I kept. 2 kids in the third world got OLPCs that wouldn't...

You need to stop thinking in absolute dates and switch to relative dates. The Pandora has always been going to ship in 1-2 months from now. ;)

I think the month name we are grasping for here is "March"

I'm still intrigued, and I'd be surprised if most people's interest in playing the game were diminished by this turn of events. Now, I seem to remember something about Bob himself being the final boss villian of the game - does that ring any bells for anyone? Maybe part of this is setting...

Surely you don't think they got this far and said "oh shit! we forgot those huge holes around the nubs"? along with - "oh crap! we've left the screen ribbon to go fully outside the case where it can easily get broken"... That slit at the back by the left hinge can't really be where the...

Well that's a relief. I know that a bread box will fit in my pocket, but it's one of the things I'm hoping to replace with the Pandora.

Heyo, I guess the topic speaks for itself. Now that there is a new case design, and completed working prototypes on the horizon, I wonder if the dimensions on the wiki need updating. Some of the chatter seems to indicate that the Pandora is now thicker than the originally quoted 27mm. a

:D I was just starting a topic myself to ask about the size. My impression of the new render is that it looks thicker, and some of DaveC's comment seem to back that up, if the previous renders were unrealistically thin.

:) you and everyone who ordered in the first hour I imagine... I doubt the hacker version will come to fruition, it would cause a lot of grief for limited benefit, unless it is a carrot for MUCH longer delays... I can see it shipping with a beta OS, but without a battery? I'd echo lardman's...

Ah no, you've made a classic mistake in interpreting a Craig update... Basically, he doesn't say that it will be 'completed', but 'working'. It will probably be FDM rapid prototyped based on other updates from Chip. He also doesn't say that you will see videos next weekend - just that they...

Thanks Craig. Great to have a new render, are the final dimensions any different now that there is a final design? was 140 x 83 x 27 mm

Taking this to it's logical conclusion, I think a great idea would be a bluetooth dongle that has modules for GPS, GSM, CDMA, 3G....WIMAX, EDGE..whatever in the future, and a bigass battery. In terms of reducing redundancy and pocket real estate you could have just what you would use in a...

I don't really get the thought process in not reordering but going for the second batch. "Yes, I do still want one, but I don't want it too soon"?
