350-500 or so and got email today.

I got my email today as well, 48 hours until Pandora in hands. For those checking queue size, I was around 350-500 in craig's queue.

The hassles of adding a phone to the device would have delayed it even longer, if you want a phone that you can game on there's hundreds already out there, drop the pandora phone crap already.

Yeah it's being released by the same Panasonic Cloud company.

I have a GP2X and honestly didn't use it much after I first got it because of the horrid battery times. Around an hour or so even with good quality rechargeables. I probably would have used it more plugged into the wall, but my wall adapter broke soon after I got mine and I tried a few that...

I don't understand the preoccupation with 1080p video on a 800 x 480 handheld device that has just standard definition video outputs. Why not just resize the video?

Yeah, a 60 gig SSD is close to $100, add that to a Pandora and you're talking a big bump in price.

I don't understand why someone would "cancel and order from another batch". You end up losing money, with the exchange rate and the increase in cost. But hey whatever, if you like losing money more power for ya.

I wouldn't count on USB to VGA working on the Pandora. They require drivers, which probably aren't available for ARM Linux, not to mention the bandwidth of USB would probably only be sufficient for text.

gp2x just runs a flavor of linux, so anything that can be compiled for linux should work fine on it

Looks like a Scramble clone.

I'm 400-500 in the Craig queue and haven't received one yet. People are forgetting about the Pandoras that the German and Turkish shops have been getting.

You know, installing Linux is not hard. I used to be wary of that as well, then I got a laptop that crawled under Vista and I installed Linux on it as a dual boot, it was MUCH faster. It's as simple as downloading the ISO from the web, burning it to a disc, sticking it in the dvd drive...

I first ordered the Pandora to primarily be a music player (at work, lounging at home, etc.) and secondarily for emulation/games. With the proper software and SD cards it could be better than an iPod or other portable player. And don't tell me the iPod is a good music player, 1) it's tied down...

I'm not sure, I haven't seen that post yet. It's possible another freely available cable uses the same connector, like the GP2X cable I mentioned. It's also possible he got an evaluation sample, some companies that ship bulk offer that service so people can see if the part will suit their purpose.

The connector used is available, but only in large bulk orders, and the pinout is available, so it would be pretty easy for any one of us to put together a cable if they wished. Only thing is they'd need to buy several thousand connectors. I wish there was another cable freely available that...

Emails whining about when you're gonna get your Pandora are just delaying legit email messages. Took me like a week to get a response to an update to my delivery address.

a common issue that's been reported is the download wasn't completed cleanly so the PND is corrupt, redownloading usually fixes it.

Thanks for the link on the 32gb, I just grabbed one. Picked up one from another store last week for like 10 bucks more, so now I have two 32 gb for the Pandora when it arrives.

I'm sure they are getting a ton of emails with people asking when they are gonna get their Pandora. Last time I contacted them to change my delivery address and it took about a week for them to respond.
