I'd just like to mention that I've been running Linux in a virtual environment with 256 MB of RAM for several weeks and it's worked great for most tasks. My processor is a lot beefier than the Pandora's, but the RAM would be its main limitation.

zeropro: I'm sorry if I offended you; I realize now my tone was a little too harsh and I apologize. However, I also got into the project days before the preorder began. I knew what I was getting into when I ordered my Pandora: I was funding the final development and production of a...

Totally valid point, and it was undoubtedly an oversight on GBAX's part. For that I do agree they're partially responsible. Unfortunately there's nothing they can do without being down far more money cumulatively. My main points were essentially that there's nothing to "investigate," no scam...

I went to my first PAX earlier this year and I'm definitely going to PAX09. Any Pandora preorderers gonna be rockin' the Handheld Lounge with me next year? ;)

What? People are obviously not using their heads, here. Listen. There are two separate issues; let me make this very clear for you: CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATION Since US purchasers are the main voice here, I'll focus on US exchange rates. On October 5, 2008, the USD -> GBP exchange...

Got mine: Spokane, WA USA. Reordering is a slight inconvenience, but at least I know now I'll be covered (whenever the page gets put up). Kind of exciting actually.

Perhaps, but there are other reasons the current Pandora feature set is frozen. The main one being that the devs don't want to split the community. You can see for yourself how insane the Pandora's fanbase is. We don't need rabid devotees of both the Pandora 1.0 and 1.1 designs.

True enough. The shoulder crack was still a problem up until a year or so ago. Anyway, the PCBs shown in the blog were dev boards, and have been sent out to developers. That's why there were only a few produced.

I know this is a popular idea among hardcore Linux users. I was attracted to the idea myself originally... but it seems to me that most of these ideas overly complicate what is essentially a game system, with a gamer's OS. Have any of you guys actually read the PXML file spec? There's no way...

Aside from that, Craig gave the forums a thread dedicated to an update with the latest news. So much better than small tidbits in miscellaneous threads. This is what everyone's been asking for, which is why we're offering their thanks. Thanks for taking the time out of your busy schedule to...

I still have my Pandora on the way and I recently spent $750 on a new quad core PC with a $240 video card. BUT I'M JUST A LOONEY!

$3000 isn't really a sufficient figure for a project this big. In the period from Thursday -> Sunday when preorders were opened, the Pandora team raked in over a million dollars.

This is how we should have gotten the information in the first place. Better late than never, though. I don't mind for my part, it's just been a little crazy on the boards since we started getting the trickle of not so great news. As much as I'd love to have my Pandora by November, if it...

That'd be pretty awesome actually. A fast-food restaurant entirely operated by robots.

Technically speaking, making any unauthorized copy of any copyrighted game (which happens when you download a ROM for example) is illegal. Whether you own it or not. Ethical? That's up to personal judgment.

Here, here. Right now my greatest worry is the state of this community, not whether or not I'll receive a Pandora (I don't see any reason to worry about that yet - it's not mid-November). I just hope a decent community remains once we actually have Pandoras in-hand. With all this talk of...

Technically speaking EA was the company responsible for bringing HL2 to PS3. If they developed the OpenGL code, ValvE may not even have access to it.

First I've heard of DirectX support, but that bit seriously doesn't matter in the Pandora's case (obviously). But I'm also interested to see what we can do with the SGX - binary and open source.

Osmo looks good. I saw it earlier, but wasn't sure if there was something better out there. Apparently it compiles great for Maemo, so it shouldn't be hard to make it work on Pandora.

Gasp. Will we be getting Pandora shirts stateside? omg.
