... I didn't think SDIO was going to be possible, as drivers aren't open-source... I vaguely remember having this discussion about the GP2X a few years ago.

I asked this question earlier... http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?showt...=41947&st=0 but more directly explained here: http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?showtopic=41546 There's space for it above the SD "cages", it'll slide into the unit horizontally, about halfway between the front of...

Precisely why a handheld with less than 5000 units at launch aimed at a niche gaming market which happens to be what some in the gaming industry would consider as piracy, will not get a Capcom, SEGA, SNK, Rockstar, Konami, or any name-brand companies' games on it. Minuscule market share. But...

I don't think its too late... :P

I personally don't foresee any big players developing games for this system. Really, SEGA and Capcom? SNK? I don't think so... Attach rate is paramount in the gaming world, developers really pay attention to that. And if someone releases a console that's expected to have absolutely NO attach...

That's why we should just leave it up to them. Honestly, the Pandora has enough of both worlds to attract a larger userbase. Seriously, gaming media should label it as a gaming machine (because it's a capable one) with some UMPC perks, and the gadget community (?) should label it as a very small...

QUOTE BLAH It doesn't matter what we call it. Sorry. It runs Linux and has buttons and a screen. Those are three reasons why I'm buying it. 'Nuff said.

I LOVE this UI. It's a good combination of Gmenu2X and GNOME, somehow. And would work well with an LCARS skin ;) Remember, folks, we're just discussing the default UI. I'm sure, like with the GP2X and with Linux, more options will be available to those inclined to change the UI.

So is there a dev at least interested in giving it a whirl? If I had an ounce of coding skill I'd be the zottd of Saturn4Pandora ;) but unfortunately, I know near nothing.

I'd be happy if any sort of Netplay function existed for certain emulators, but finding people to play would be a horrible pain without some way to get in touch with people. Not only that, any other method than a chatroom or a unified something wouldn't be quick enough to connect two people...

PicoDrive... PicoDrive. I would like Sega CD on the Pandora, and would graciously request 32X support ;)

I was an early adopter of the GP2X, within a month or so of launch, and, other than a few hardware issues which were worked out with time, I found that I always had something to do on the GP2X. I don't ever remember being frustrated about this or that not being ported (other than dosbox) or this...

Hey, if people use the dinky qwerty pads on cellphones to text as fast as they can, no big deal, then I think the Pandora's will be no big deal. I anticipate using my thumbs more than touch-typing. Even so, It'll be fine, I imagine.

blah. discussion's over. we've heard it all before.

The thing that hindered the GP2X from becoming a more UMPC type device, really, was the lack of any sort of Wifi. Add that and a qwerty key'board' and I'll be paying attention. Really, with the mic, wifi, keyboard, and some VOIP software, I'm seriously thinking of canceling my mobile and...

Never realized how much I miss a comic reader on the GP2X, but I certainly do... Not in order of priority... Web-browsing Chat VOIP Perhaps an all-in-one reader? TXT, PDF, CBR/CBZ, etc? An RSS browser (Gotta keep up to date ;) ) Any tort of time-based life-organizer, calendar, alarm clock...

I'd think that it would do well on energy consumption, what with there being a pretty decent battery in the thing. Otherwise, not much else than what's in every mobile computer device...

Well, perhaps with the Pandora... But I'd love to finish Watchmen when I'm not in front of the computer ;)

Just wondering if there is a program out there for the 2X that can read the comic book archive files, or a port of an open source program, like Evince or Okular that knows what to do with the archive files... I'd just unzip the archives, but flipping through images with the photo viewer kind of...
