Did I state that differentiation was something different? Your appeal to my cognition of the discussion is overly broad in my view -- consider paring it back a bit. Thatgui can clarify, but as I understand he was humoring Craig's stance on making the P2 more attractive (by making it smaller...

Well, we're quite a ways off the trail from marketing discussion... but to be fair, the hardware does make a significant (and I would argue the biggest) difference. Tandem to the hardware is the OS, however, and I think the path of "user-friendly Linux" is a better proposition for the default...

++ So long as the hands like it, a little larger is totally fine. All that beautiful, natively full-size interface support is worth it 100% in my view.

Oh, actually mine has two mini-USB, one for charging and one for OTG. I did not know the UG802 had micro USB though, interesting. But for Pandora, though full-size USB isn't a requirement in the same sense as these devices, to me it certainly is a core feature.

My 11th edition Merriam Webster would like to have a word with you, Overgauss... 1st definition is "debatable" like I already said, 2nd definition is "deprived of practical significance." Just like this pedantic semantic debate I am now ending, on all fronts. You seriously have some kind of...

ED, The Open Pandora is powerless. I can only hope the touchscreen makes some kind of revolution to prove all you controller-obsessed fanboys wrong... :D

It is pointless to discuss, I did not realize that moot primarily means "debatable". It also means "not of practical value", which is what I meant. The omission did not distort your argument. I'm not doing the legwork of of analyzing and perfectly quoting your posts, it's just too much. As a...

I have never had nor heard of breakage of either USB size being an issue, so to me it is completely irrelevant whether one is more durable. Yep, but it's convenient to not require a cable. Natively supporting full size USB appeals to me. But I was serious when I said I wasn't going to argue...

This thread's going to have thousands of views soon... well played. I bet your Super Pandora 2.0's screen has plasma grenade residue smattered on it. Windex should make a quick job of it. ;)

While it's more like Windows 7 than I had originally thought from screenshots, Win8 is to be avoided like the plague. Ever wonder why it's so cheap? :| More to the point, as previously said if you desire an Open Pandora then a primary reason is likely portability. This was examined in an...

Many of those yes, including the DS likeness, craziness of the concept, incredulity at it being a full desktop in your hand, how the plastic looks a bit homemade, and most relevantly to the Pandora 2, no comments on the size.

What klapse, vandyswa, Grench, and _wb_ said. It's fine to make adjustments for the sake of usability or improvement -- slimmer form factor, microSD, Android, etc. But movements in a mainstream direction are different from the deliberate decision to step into the mainstream arena. I think the...

Ohhhhh. Now that's an interesting bargain, not sure I could give up full-size USB though... both are dealbreakers for me actually. :/

The USB port being highly interoperable, I would argue strongly for it to be full-size as most of my peripherals have full-size plugs. I would argue that, but I won't since it won't make any difference to OPT. :P

Planescape, not Planetscape. :) Traveling between planes of existence rather than planets. </pedantry>

I've always yearned for the very linear games to be more open. The trouble is that when they are open, something interesting needs to be there other than just more people, powerups/items, and "stuff". Mini-quests and easter eggs are good to scatter about, but they shan't be algorithmically...

I think the Pandora was absolutely designed for this kind of hack, great work!

Could you clarify? The only graphic improvements I am aware of with regard to HD would be widescreen support (UI changes) and things like bit depth. I'd assume these to be adjustable for purpose of porting to the OP. The first statement in this post says that significant texture, background, and...

Runescape Classic is a game that should be talked about more. The game is a lot of fun and has huge potential.

I'd be surprised if the data files went through any kind of overhaul. They're spending time upgrading, fixing bugs, enabling modifications, networking, yadda yadda... I doubt they'll substantially change the datafile formats/structure, and I really doubt that any changes they make would be...
