    Reversable USB-A connector

    I was looking through digikey to see if micro-C connectors are available yet. Unfortunately not, but while there I saw this: http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/614108247221/732-4345-1-ND/3844673 This is a reversible USB-A female connector. What this means is that the cable should plug in...

    Release Navit

    By using by desktop, I was able to fix a bunch of things, but I have been unable to make the above code work. The following is my current OSD section of the navit.xml file: <osd enabled="yes" type="compass" x="0" y="0" w="100" h="125" font_size="400"/> <osd enabled="yes"...

    Release Navit

    I made another attempt to work on the navit gui today. In an attempt to solve the blank next street in route issue, I tried to add the command: <osd name="next_street_cmdif" update_period="1" enabled="yes" type="cmd_interface" w="450" h="25" x="200" y="15"...

    The big Pyra keyboard poll

    The single wide space bar is essential for many keymaps. This is a MUST have. I don't really care how the default keymap is arranged, I plan to re-map it anyway, but I must have the single wide space bar, or this will be impossible. ED should sell the keymats with the keycaps not installed + a...

    Analog Stick Manufacturer

    Both of the analogue sticks on my Pandora have trouble going certain directions, and the auto-calibration software only makes it worse. It is really frustrating when the mouse moves 5 times faster in one direction than another.

    Look elsewhere, the Pandora’s analogue stick is junk.

    USB 3.1 Type C connector is ready for production

    http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/14/08/12/2131247/reversible-type-c-usb-connector-ready-for-production I hope this becomes available for purchase before the Pyra is finalized. I hate the micro-B USB 3.0 connector.

    Testing alternative Layouts that require single-width space. INTL layout vs Big Space, and other key

    If you have changed your mind about the double wide space key, you can delete your vote. (I suspect you can also vote for a different item after you have deleted your vote, but I have not changed my mind, so I have not tried it).

    Testing alternative Layouts that require single-width space. INTL layout vs Big Space, and other key

    If you are sitting at your desk, why aren’t you using your desktop computer? There is no point in designing the Pyra for desktop use. If you want that, plug in a desktop keyboard, or better yet use your desktop computer. The Pyra needs to be designed to work hand held using your thumbs.

    Testing alternative Layouts that require single-width space. INTL layout vs Big Space, and other key

    I think the best solution is to have all keycaps blank. Like this one: http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/wasd-v2-88-key-iso-custom-mechanical-keyboard.html

    Release Navit

    Actually I can think of several things that they could do about this. The simplest would be just scan the list of streets in the route and show the next one that actually has a name or number. I increased the number of next streets in the route displayed to four, and that seems to be just...

    Testing alternative Layouts that require single-width space. INTL layout vs Big Space, and other key

    Someone needs to write a really good keymap editor for the Pyra.

    Testing alternative Layouts that require single-width space. INTL layout vs Big Space, and other key

    The one thing that MUST happen is to shorten the space bar. If you don't shorten the space bar, many alternate keymaps do not work. The example of this that affects me directly is Dvorak, it can't be done on the Pandoras keyboard, and this prevents me from using Pandora for anything that...

    Release Navit

    I tried this out today, it needs a bit of tweaking. Some freeways only have numbers, not names, so I need to add the systematic to the display. Onramps & offramps have no names, and unfortunately, some simple offramps are built from several segments of unnamed road resulting in the next two...

    Release Navit

    I finally spent some time and fuddled around with the navit.xml file. I have added the minimum basic functionality I think necessary for driving with a GPS to the on screen display. Pointer to north relitive to traveling direction Name of next next street in route...

    Release gpsd bundle and modrana update

    Bluetooth GPSs are a hastle, one must go through a complicated sequence to get them connected after every boot, and a somewhat less complicated sequence after every time you put the Pandora to sleep. I don't have a USB GPS, probably less hastle, but you will either need a USB OTG cable to...

    Testing alternative Layouts that require single-width space. INTL layout vs Big Space, and other key

    There is no such thing as a standard keymap, only a standard qualified with "for country x". I am in favor of have an array of completely remapable keys with no "special" keys that can't be re-mapped. I think ED should provide a few common keymap keymats pre-installed, and sell keymats &...

    Testing alternative Layouts that require single-width space. INTL layout vs Big Space, and other key

    If EvilDragon would at least make perferations around the space bar, and another pair of keys, one could buy two keymats, tear out the space bar and tare out the pair of keys from the other mat and put them where the space bar was. There would need to be some way of keeping that pair of keys in...

    Unofficial Keyboard Layouts

    As long as any key can be remapped to any other key (including shift, return etc..) I would be very happy with this. My primary gripe has been that with a double wide space bar, I am precluded from mapping dvoark, which means my pandora gets used mostly just for browsing the internet.
