This is an easy one for me. E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial for the Atari 2600. I think it's on every "worst games of all time" list, but I like it for some weird reason. In fact, I still fire it up occasionally on my 2600 for a grin. :) https://www.youtube.com/embed/hxmgr2fFAuI?feature=oembed

Things have changed for me since my original order. I'm glad I had a chance to hold one for a little while, but I don't see myself needing a portable gaming device any longer. I thought I'd post here in case anyone was looking for one that's been inspected, and can ship same or next day (US...

Well, for me, I use the Pandora primarily for running emulators and games. They are all running fullscreen, so I have no need for a desktop environment. Minimenu is very easy to navigate with the dpad and shoulder buttons. I also seem to have better luck exiting from emulators quickly with...

Thank you for that link, Tempel.

Just wanted to thank Skeezix and DaveC for Minimenu (and the other contributions, of course). I started off my first day using XFCE since I'm a comfortable in Linux, but Minimenu is just so much nicer on a device like this IMHO. Marvelous interface with a great look and feel. Thank you both...

I really like these buttons as a standard for menu and quit.

The nubs are growing on me. They are very smooth and using them for mouse control works quite well. So well, in fact, that in just 1 short day of use I rarely use the stylus outside of dosbox. Really hope I can find an answer to the Vice issue I'm having. I'd have bought the Pandora if the...

I got my Pandora yesterday (premium upgrade), and I'm *very* pleased with it. Both shoulder buttons are excellent and equal, the nubs are buttery smooth (although I'm not a fan of analog nubs), dpad is excellent, keyboard is much nicer than I expected, the volume control is awesome, speakers...

My Pandora has shipped! I was getting close in the queue, but upgraded to premium anyway because I think the device is worth $500 and I'd really like to see a Pandora 2 someday. I hope you guys will consider it once this first one is all settled down. I'll be sure to post a review, and...

Here's a few of my favorites that I didn't see listed (apologies if I duplicated any): Atlantis Basketball (my brother and I laughed our butts off playing this) Boxing (another game we played together and still do every time he visits) Commando Raid Enduro (Great racer... similar to...

I'd like to add a few to the list: Mail Order Monsters Archon Archon II - Adept Elite Wasteland AD&D Pool of Radiance (and the rest of the "gold box" series) BC II - Grog's Revenge Frankie Goes to Hollywood Raid on Bungeling Bay Ultima (III & IV being personal favorites)...

It's funny, but most companies do make plans for what to do if things go badly, but rarely make plans for what to do if it is hugely successful. I hope the Pandora team has a "Teh Next Big Thing™" plan AND has to use it! If this device is half as cool in practice as it looks on paper, you guys...

QFT People are acting like we're out standing in soup lines. Unemployment is still in the single digits unless I missed something (certainly possible). I'm seeing Help Wanted signs all over the place, so employment must not be all THAT bad. That's my personal indicator of Bad Times™. Now...

I've been following the Microvision line of laser projectors for a while. I'm really hoping these devices will be good enough to replace the portable projectors our sales force and trainers use today. No lens, low power draw, insane "bulb" life, no need for fans... these just sound too good to...

Woohoo!! That is some very good news. Thank you.

Unfortunately, bringing the Beagleboard up to Pandora's TOTALLY AWESOME 256MB of RAM isn't an option. I just don't want to pay that kind of money and feel like I'm settling. Especially not when there's an alternative out there that has everything and the kitchen sink. I (wrongly) assumed that...

I've been pretty close to snapping up a Beagleboard, but I'd rather have a Pandora board for a multi-console system. I prefer the Pandora board for the integrated Bluetooth/wifi, dual SDHC slots and some soundcard differences I've seen referenced. Do you see yourselves offering a board only...

My only problem with using the Pandora keyboard (or any thumb keyboard) for a wearable is trying to type on it while not watching the keys. I guess I haven't used them enough to quickly type on them without a lot of errors. I use the keyboard on my OQO a lot while I'm walking, but I have to...
