Depending where it ships from, I expect to get mine after Christmas (I'm in 700-800 bracket), as shipping from either texas or the UK will be atleast a week. I don't entirely mind though, the shoulder buttons are going to be pretty important for me personally so a usability tweak like this over...

Neither would be a problem, XFCE has virtual desktops with easy switching via key combination, and most distros let you switch to virtual terminal sessions much like you've described out of the box

On my desktop I almost never view my desktop because there's always actual programs open ontop of it, I always use a menu. The only time I use anything on my desktop is when I reboot then never again until the next time, and with a device like the pandora I'd ideally just be using a low power...

The hardware at best is currently only about half a year old in comparison to what else is available on the market, and there is still nothing that's really better out there, just equivalent in a crappier form factor with locked down OSes. The system is also as powerful as it always has...

A random person who's sick of your whining in the middle of seemingly every thread. If it's that much grief for you cancel your order and get your money back, someone else will take your place.

Are you going to cancel your order yet

I think maybe 2-3 minutes after preorders went up I ordered - I remember the mashing of F5 for the preorder atleast. Received my order confirmation on Sep 30, 2008 at 1:10 PM PST, so I think it's safe to assume I'm in the first 300 without creating more work for people with my impatience

I've bought 2 netbooks, the first was just a cheap $250 acer aspire one and threw crunchbang on it, my mom wanted one for slow days at work and I told her I'd just give mine to her when I got my pandora, because I needed something meanwhile to use for work. A year later of telling her "it'll be...

He calculated the interest 4% monthly, without compounding it 4% of $384.50 is $15.38 $15.38 x 12 months = $184.56 That is a pretty major lack of understanding in investing

Wow, is that with increased voltage as well? Or is that stock voltage?

For anyone that isn't in the UK, shipping will add alot of time. The units are being assembled in Texas, then they must be shipped to UK before being shipped out to a north american distributor. So, figure on 3 months or more if you're not in the UK.

Now we all know the ARM CPU is overclockable, but I remember in some news posts that the SGX was clocked at 55mhz, and then 110mhz for some tests. I assume 110mhz is the stock GPU clock, but is it overclockable like the CPU is?

It better not be Comic Sans MS or I'm canceling my preorder, and my mom's preorder as well

That goldeneye mod is just a total conversion of doom, you would just need the game files to play it on any doom client (which the pandora already has), I don't see why you would want to play it though because it's just goldeneye levels in doom and doesn't play like goldeneye at all. If we get...

The people who spammed F5 for orders to come up are people who have more time on their hands, they're more likely to be serious/advanced with computers in general compared to the people at the end of the line, even if they aren't software developers they'll still get lots of use out of them and...

Why is this guy even still here advertising this crap that nobody would ever use, you'd figure after how almost every reply he's gotten is negative feedback he'd realize nobody cares

My aspire one's drivers were fairly poor at first, some open access points it would just not connect to at all even though other people could no problem. Updated the driver a month later and it fixed it. The issue with the Pandora will likely be similar to this, just immature wireless drivers...

Don't be so sure about that. With the atom processor you could accomplish it today. look at the acer one aspire, it's only about twice as big as a Pandora and if they made the screen and kb smaller, they could probably pull it off. Chris The aspire one generates quite alot of heat (it requires...

There's already tons of opensource torrent and gnutella (limewire uses gnutella) clients for linux, they would just have to be compiled for ARM

This is something I haven't seen on the forums yet, but what is the shipping route plan for Pandora units for each respective area? Assuming they are all being assembled and tested in one area (Europe?), will they first be shipped to a designated Pandora distributor in mass (ie: north american...
