If I could get a binary download I'd try it, it seems to be mixed in with the entire angstrom OS image for the beagleboard in their downloads. On a side note, with my Pandora overclocked to 1050mhz it -almost- plays 1280x720 x264 encoded files with subtitles with the built-in mplayer. It drops...

Well now that I actually have a Pandora I can have a more valid suggestion. I underestimated the usefulness of the nubs and ABXY with browsing, I don't really feel the need to use Fennec or the touchscreen in general. So far my favorite is FF4 Beta 10 but I haven't really bothered using the...

The built in speakers are quieter than any laptops speakers I've heard. Using my N900 with a noise measurement program gives me about 38dB ambient noise on my desk, while playing music on the Pandora about a foot away it measures 60dB. It's also much quieter than my N900, but the speakers...

I was really surprised at the power output the Pandora has for audio. I tried them with my audio-technica ath-m50 headphones and quickly found that I only needed about 20-30% volume for it to be loud (100% would definitely be painful). In comparison, on my Cowon D2 I need the volume at about...

Well, a car isn't a computer that fits in my pocket. To fill it's battery for the day it doesn't cost $50 either. The Pandora is something I will use for a few years at the very least, and it's cost (if going the premium route, a chunk more than the $330 I paid 2.5 years ago) is still only some...

I'm surprised that there's nothing wrong with it. Absolutely nothing - no missing screws, no messed up shoulder buttons, no gritty buttons or anything. Even the stylus came out without too much effort. The unit is literally perfect, and I love it. I picked it up from the post office on my...

With overclocking you don't so much worry about the frequency, it's the voltage (OPP level). You won't really hurt anything by overclocking high as possible with stock voltage. Worst that will happen is the unit will freeze up and/or be unstable until the overclocking setting is removed.

Sounds like a dingoo with different control scheme. Probably extremely stripped down as well, minimenu only.

Too little, too late. I think the nail in their grave was attempting to push Symbian on smartphones, and not doing anything with Maemo/Meego + poor implementation of Ovistore. Symbian shouldn't have been used on anything aside from the <$100 handsets.

It uses a Realtek RTL8188CUS chipset, it looks like there's Linux driver source available for the unit (even directly from the Edimax site), support for it doesn't appear to be built into the linux kernel itself. So, you probably would have to download the source and compile the driver...

Got my shipping email today, I'm in the 700-800 order area. Definitely not expecting it before the weekend though.

Anyone wanna buy my 40GHz computer? 4 cores with 2 threads each, i7 2600k overclocked to 5GHz.

It performs so poorly as it's not accelerated by the DSP. This isn't because of the Pandora's kernel lacking DSP accel either. On the N900 it's actually a big performance drop going from flash 9.4 to this plugin because the 9.4 plugin is accelerated and the beta 10.1 plugin is not.

Well apparently judging by the few videos and reviews/comments released about this thing, it's definitely not as expected. Can't even load your own games on it besides GBA via SD, they want you to purchase their own cartridges containing pirated ROMs. As it is, it's basically the cartridge of...

Just wondering if anyone has used the Pandora's USB port for USB audio yet, to hook it up to DACs/stereo systems and/or USB headsets. If so, does USB automatically take over and release when used, or is some fiddling required to swap it back and forth?

I would actually pay for the premium.. if I didn't already get screwed over from the paypal fiasco and didn't buy some stupidly expensive gadgets in the last little while. My Pandora has cost me nearly $500 CAD already anyways, since the bank transfer cost me about $60, paying another ~$150 to...

Although I don't have my Pandora yet, on similar capable devices I would not use FF3.6 at all. It's far too slow in comparison to webkit based browsers. FF4 is a huge improvement and would be considerable for me, given that nubs-as-mouse is comfortable. All the important extensions work in it...

Since I'm 700-800 in the order list and expect to get a delivery confirmation soon, I decided it was time to buy some SD cards. I found some good prices on some 32GB Class 10 Patriot SD cards for those of you in Canada: $54.79 but limit of one per customer $55.99 without limit Things are...

Saw this on the new arrivals section of dealextreme. http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.54070 Anyone heard anything about this "Gamebox"? If it'll really emulate those MAME platforms, SNES, and play 720p xvid/h264 video files this seems like a killer for $53. Tempted to get one of...

I have run my N900 at 1.3ghz without issue, but that was at maximum selectable voltage. For everyday use, I run at 1ghz with below stock voltage, with battery life better than stock. It's probably possible for someone with a lucky Pandora to hit this, given proper voltage selection options.
