    I Am Cancelling (Eventually)

    OK, we have the devoted fanboys saying that they'll never cancel. Some of them saying that they'll simply write off their pre-order money if need be. Anyone feel differently? I'm still hanging in - for now. But September 30th is coming, and perhaps, the currency situation will right itself by...

    I Wonder If This Is The Problem With The Pandora

    Now imagine that, even if they do eventually fix it, what that'll mean to warranties. Will they extend the warranties until all driver support is complete? How will anyone know if they got a bum wi-fi chip, or that the antenna isn't installed, or whatever?

    Eds Status On The Pandora Os - Disheartening

    Slow would be OK, but that isn't the case. The reality is that the Wifi is dropping so many packets as to be unusable. What's posted is deceptive. It should say that Wifi doesn't currently work. First, I'm not ranting or raving. I'm being civil and polite in what I'm posting here. Please be...

    Eds Status On The Pandora Os - Disheartening

    I don't consider a network device functional if it is dropping so many packets that it cannot load a web page. This likely means that it cannot be used for any practical purpose. Again, this should be simply communicated - "Wifi doesn't work right now". Again, I'd be willing to bet that the vast...

    Eds Status On The Pandora Os - Disheartening

    The only example given in this thread was really lame. The G1? The 1.0 version of the firmware worked. Sure, it had problems, but all hardware was supported. Poor example. I seriously doubt that the majority of pre-orders realize that significant hardware simply won't be functional when they...

    Eds Status On The Pandora Os - Disheartening

    OK, then in other words, WiFi doesn't currently work, correct? Why is there a need to soft-peddle this lack of functionality? I wonder how many pre-orders are aware of this. I'm pretty sick of responses like this. Where are they saying this? Comments in some forum? I don't see this mentioned...

    Closest Pandora Competitor

    http://carrypad.com/2010/02/22/moblic-e7-wimax-gaming-mid-spotted/ Those specs sure sound familiar. Hope that the Pandora comes out first.

    2Nd Review Case Should Arrive Soon.

    Um, it has been tried before. It was called the Zodiac. It was a (for the time) high-spec PalmOS PDA with gaming controls, two SD (not SDHC) slots, Bluetooth, discrete graphics processor... http://www.pdatoday.com/maximumpda_more/1827_0_2_0_C/

    Sdhc - How Fast Is Fast Enough?

    PLEASE stop posting misinformation - you're the second person on this thread to crap it up with ignorance. There is a "real" Class 10. From the wikipedia page on sdhc: Panasonic invented SD/SDHC, and they're the first to come out with Class 10. If they say that it is spec, it is. To get back...

    Your Place In Line...

    If it really is close to accurate, I have a 200-ish number. And I'm in the US. Could my ship out after the first day of production? Could I get one before Xmas travels? No, probably not. I'm guessing a Feb ship date, given the past performance I've seen thus far :(

    Batch 2 Release Date

    Wow, you seem to know an awful lot of things. Maybe you could tell me what problem we'll have next. 'cause I DON'T know :) Who picked the institutions that handled the money? Or the company that made the nubs? Or made the errors in the boards and cases that require minor fixes? This is what...

    "estimated" Release Date

    On June 6, we're told by one of the project primaries that the device will ship in July. On June 12, we're told by another of the project primaries that the device will ship no sooner than ~60 days. This shows rather poor communications between members of the project, and is extremely...

    Full Refund?

    What did I gain? I got my FULL refund. This is as much satisfaction as I expect to get. My bank refunded my full charged amount. This, regrettably, cost someone else 47 GBP. Again, I suggest that others follow this lead. If you don't mind eating a loss, then go for it. I'm not so charitable.

    Full Refund?

    I strongly suggest that everyone in this boat (US orders, especially) call and do a chargeback NOW. Each chargeback will result in the full dollar amount being credited back to the buyer, and 20ish pounds being debited from the seller's accounts. If the seller complains, we can tell them to...

    All Refunds Not Sent Yet

    We'll see how charitable you'll feel if you end up shelling out $350 and end up with nothing to show for it. I think that possibility is a very real concern given how things have been handled up until now. You may want to consider changing your nickname here. Noisome means "offensive...

    All Refunds Not Sent Yet

    Sorry, but I think that your point is kind of silly. The Pandora team (poorly) chose the bank that is allegedly causing these problems. I say allegedly, because there's been no accounting of what actually is behind the mess. I suspect that the problem is simply poor planning on the part of...
