I agree. It's very unfortunate that my wonderful 1984 pocket TV won't work anymore. However, enough people have cable or can afford a converter that I don't think TVs will all just be thrown away. If they are, you can bet I'll be standing at the curb ready to pick them up as they fly out of...

Since when does Pandora have a GPS? Did I miss something? Or are you suggesting connecting it to a GPS module via bluetooth?

Ah well, If you want to carry around a vacuum everywhere, I think you have bigger problems than USB power specifications. :P Seriously, this is a POCKET sized device. While I might want say, a laptop, to be able to power anything I throw at it, I'm not sure I need my handheld computer to do the...

I don't think that's the point of the open source movement. I don't think they'd want to sell stock in the first place.

The idea of displaying an unobtrusive text window beside the game within the emulator sounds very, very good. Map scrolling on the text window to a couple keys, and implement a "Find" feature, and it will be a dream come true.

I happen to have a converter, actually, because my TI calculator had the same USB-mini On The Go port, and I got hold of some nice USB MSD/HUD drivers for it. On second thought, I may have lost it by now... It's really really got to be USB-mini Male A to USB Female A! Some go to USB B, which...

You definitely can take it to a place to get it engraved. That actually sounds really cool, so I throw my vote in for the "blank surface" choice.

Hold on: I thought that the USB OTG port was both a host and a peripheral in itself. Does this mean that it has one port that has two functions, or that it has one two-function port and one regular host port (for a total of TWO physical ports)?

USB 2.0 IS normal. What decade are you from? The pandora uses USB-on-the-go, I believe.

Damn. Oh well, I guess it's better to have a device that actually WORKS out of the box. I'd rather not have to dismantle it in the first week to get it working. I guess I'll have to go harass TI now.

Emulation is not all about power! Read the faq! Just because a system is x times as powerful as another, it doesn't mean that it can be emulated at 1/x, or even 1/(10x) speed! PS2 emulation is impossible because no portable emulator exists, not because it not powerful enough. (If one DID exist...

This is the most amazing thing ever. Seriously, I didn't even know PSP emulators existed. I think DS emulation will end up about as playable as GameBoy emulation on Palm IIIc, which works about 50% speed when overclocked, yet manages to play plenty of games well such as Zelda and Pokemon...

The point of the pandora isn't to NOT do anything. It's to do everything it's designed to do well, and then do a bunch more cool stuff that no one thought was possible. What's the point of having an argument about why someone shouldn't do something that won't effect you anyway? If someone wants...

While I do think a port is possible, I would like to point out that OpenGL-ES 2.0 != OpenGL 2.0.

How many GP2Xs have been sold? 50000? 100000? Over 5+ years, that's still quite a few. The Pandora will primarily be purchased by members of a pool about that size, so I can't see how more than 3000 would be sold in the first few weeks. As long as you don't miss the preorder by like a month or...

You read my mind. Seriously, I have nothing to add. Except maybe many thanks for Zod. Amazing work, dude. You put this stuff out so fast, I can hardly refresh your homepage fast enough. As far as speed goes, my bet is... 75-80% speed after the first few (say, 6) weeks, with the first day's...

No matter how thoroughly they test it, you can be sure there will be a bug. It's not the end of the world. I can live with a few bugs if I get one months sooner than if I waited for the second batch. I'm sure there will be updates and such to fix bugs, anyway.
