What I (selfishly) as an intended first batch owner want for myself and what I think makes most sense for the long term success of the device are slightly different. Great emus are fantastic for that initial 'wow' on first use. Most of us on this board whilst not perhaps really happy with...

Slightly off topic... but just a warning. If you were thinking of going to www.gp2x.com to see if GPH have any news on their 'new' machine (or company demise) and you are using IE, then don't. Their company web-site has a script virus.... It certainly affects IE - I haven't had a chance (or...

I'm pre-ordering with faith. Half the fun is being in at the beginning and seeing the scene develop. Obviously I can't wait to get my hands on the kit... but I'm also looking forward to these forums having something other than fevered expectation... slowly turning to exasperation. Theres...

With the advent of iplayer, it can't be long before it becomes a TV / internet license. PS I've never heard of anyone actually having the license people knock on the door. As a student and even when first moved to London in a shared house we never 'quite' got around to getting one - oddly...

As an 'equally' young, handsome, successful man I'd say yes! But then I have the existing iphone and think its great. Well, great apart from the fact the camera doesn't zoom, can't record video and 8gb isn't large enough for an iPod. Its also physically rather large in your already...

If Ed and Craig were busy selling gp2x (and they were... we can safely assume that is funding Pandora) then why would you stop? Possiblities: 1) They wanted to cut off Ed / Craig's source of capital in some kind of attack of the Pandora. Seems unlikely they would shoot themselves in the foot...

Craig - did you hear...? Chad has a conference in September!! Stop dilly-dallying and get your skates on or you'll lose a sale :P PS Chad - what kind conference is this that you'll be impressing the other delegates with your portable hardware?

Thanks for the suggestion - didnt see the original but looks great. One mans :P ripoff is another mans homage

RetroGamer is expensive at the newsagent - 5 quid a shot. But much better value via a subscription. I love it - brings back the feel of the crash days. And its how I found the gp32 :) If the existing offer of the scan doesn't materialise, shout and I will look under my bed to try to find...

For what its worth, I would get one. Currently I haven't bothered to jailbreak my iPhone as haven't seen the point in trying to play games on a device with no controls. Perhaps ive been a bit negative - anyone think there are games worth playing with only the standard screen? But the ability...

Totally agree... but the point is, some people will indeed need to learn them. Basic shapes and alphanumeric characters are pretty much recognisable internationally, but not to the same degree the greek alphabet. If the aim is for this to in some way nudge the mainstream (or more likely -...

I suspect the cultural reference will be lost on you... but (in scouse accent) Ai ai ai ai, calm down, calm down! If we had a poll to predict the most likely user to die of a heart attack prior to ever seeing a pandora, I'm fairly sure you'd make the top of many peoples list. :D PS For...

And I thought he was just quiet studying for exams :P How long was he banned for? On topic... I think that until its actually released, with a lack of firm news, if the moderators took a hard line, it would be pretty boring round here as there would be very few posts.

Slightly (as in very) off topic Craig, but I presume that GPH know that you are building the Pandora... Do / did they have any comment, given it will to some degree be a direct competitor? Other than not willing to drop the cost of the gp2x :D Do you think they will fight back in the...

I like OrR's basic suggestion - giving a bit of incentive to donate and making it easier to do so. My concern would be the organisation required to set-up the system and ensure it ran safely without any risk of money going awol. If someone can set it up, then I think it will get people...

Lack of Dvorak keyboard. Just kidding :D No dealbreakers for me. I'm ready to pounce for one of the first 3000, and at the point of ordering I suspect there will be few known issues or if there are, Craig will have plans to sort them prior to the 3k being...

No marketing from GPH but the distributors spent time and money. Mostly via PR (ie sent gp2x to gaming / techie magazines and to gaming TV shows). In addition Craig advertises in Retro Gamer magazine. I'd imagine it will be much the same for the Pandora - with the added advantage that this...

I'm generally in favour of giving the buyer the choice. I suspect for most people it will be cost vs battery life and weight per se won't be a big judgement. Personally, for long flights I'll be wanting the most battery life possible, unless its feasible to change the battery easiy, in which...
