    Here Is What Will Be Happening.

    It might also be that the chinese are simply not capable of making a better case. In that case, waiting any longer would simply be a waste of time.

    Gehäuse verspäten sich

    Wie wäre es damit: Pandora Team verschickt alle 4000 first batch Pandoras mit diesen Gehäusen und legen einen Brief bei, dass das Gehäuse nicht ganz die erwartete Qualität erreicht hat. Sollte der Kunde tatsächlich unzufrieden sein kann er ein neues Gehäuse bestellen, entweder zum...

    Here Is What Will Be Happening.

    I'll probably be happy with this case. If it's functional (as it seems to be), I doubt anyone has a right to complain or return their Pandora on that ground. And even if it's that ugly (which I doubt from seeing all the pitures and videos from the previous cases) I'd be fully willing to pay for...

    I Need A Banner!

    Wow, looks amazing what you got so far. And don't worry, you're not stealing anyone's thunder, if there's anyone who should post the official thread, it's definitely you. :) Is the bbcode from this board fully compatible with the neogaf one? I think the neogaf one is a little more limited but...

    Craigix' Latest Twitter: The Cases Have Arrived Early

    You are 100% right of course, but I still can't help being excited. And I don't think that's an overly negative thing. We're all (well, most of us anyway) supportive of the Pandora team and simply care about what's going on. It's all in good fun, I hope :-).

    Craigix' Latest Twitter: The Cases Have Arrived Early

    The tension is killing me! :wacko:

    I Need A Banner!

    Good to know. I will edit that out right away. :blush: Neogaf has a insane number of members and readers. If this thread can get some attention and maintain it, it could direct lots of gaming and emulation enthusiasts towards the Pandora project.

    I Need A Banner!

    Nice, have you become a full member now, Gruso? I have already started a (rough) draft for the text of the official thread (I emphasize the rough, it's pretty similar to the OP of the last thread), but if you want to do the OP, I'm cool with that. I post my draft below, perhaps you and others...

    Stuck & Dead Pixels Help!

    Well, the screen on my Wiz has now decided to start dying, too. What's worrying is this: I Received it in May 2009 (from EvilDragon's shop) and it was really fine until about a month ago, then quite suddenly dead pixels started appearing and multiplying. Now it looks like this: I wonder if...

    Gehäuse verspäten sich

    Ich fühle mit dir und dem ganzen Pandora Team. Ich denke aber die meisten von den Bestellern stehen voll hinter Euch und verstehen, dass es nicht Euer Fehler ist und dass Ihr gute Arbeit macht. Ich meine, es gibt 4000 Leute, die eine Pandora bestellt haben und der überwiegende Grossteil lässt...

    2Nd Review Case Should Arrive Soon.

    Has this twitter post been discussed already? http://twitter.com/Craigix/status/7945454248 That makes it pretty clear imho that the cases have not arrived yet. Edit: never mind, I am apparently unable to read dates correctly. Sorry about that. :blush: :wacko:

    Laser Projector

    I think that would be very hard, because the laser diodes are not continually on all the time, they are turned on and off depending on the brightness of each single pixel. They also produce more (too much?) heat and their lifetime is reduced when overvolted above specifications. But if it's at...

    Laser Projector

    Yes, but most of these devices never expose the laser to the naked human eye, therefore they are rated as a lower class, even if the laser itself is rated at a much higher class. Also, it just takes a simple mod (or accidental damage) to have the Showwx projector always point its beam in the...

    2Nd Review Case Should Arrive Soon.

    Thanks for the info. Looking forward to it. It's looking less and less like Two Months(TM). :D

    Laser Projector

    Yeah, I know. Just talking about cheap DIY possibilities here. Yeah, that's very probably true. I haven't seen a Showwx in action yet, so I cannot judge it personally. This person has, though: http://www.mvisbuzz.com/2010/01/back-from-ces-2010.html You know that and I know that. The problem...

    Laser Projector

    Yeah, wave plates are expensive. And then you still need a suitable screen. A much cheaper alternative would be using two laser projectors that put out slightly shifted colors. Since lasers emit a very narrow wavelength spectrum, there is no overlap even at small shifts. Then a simple color...

    Laser Projector

    Yes, that would actually work. I did a rough analysis on those "RealD Cinema" glasses and they seem to consist of a linear polarizer followed by a lambda/4 plate to convert linearly polarized light to circularly polarized light and vice versa. So the direction that the light passes through the...

    Laser Projector

    I've been following this device for some time. If I get a pico projector it will be this one. It would really be a perfect match for Pandora, since it matches Pandoras max video out resolution. Advantages of Laser projection -Picture is always in focus, even on curved surfaces -Great color...

    Appstore Security

    Ah, I see. In that case you should indeed require the password to be entered again before each purchase, but only if someone actually has funds in their account and wants to use that payment method. Will it still be possible to use Paypal directly for each purchase? Personally I would prefer...

    Appstore Security

    I'm not sure I even understand the problem. When someone leaves their appstore account logged in (say on a public computer), the worst that can happen is that someone else is able to download the paid-for apps of that person. Authorization of payment is a separate step and handled by (for...
