C is simpler, it has lots less complexities. People think that java and C++ are better because of their feature-set but they tend to over-complicate things and encourage in-efficient programming.
Java was created for portability, so you don't use it for performance, you use it to create platform...

Jazelle RCT can be used to significantly reduce the code bloat associated with AOT and JIT compilation, making AOT technology viable on mass-market devices. It can also be used to support execution environments beyond Java, such as Microsoft .NET Compact Framework, Python and others...
I had assumed this was an undocumented feature, having seen the documents I don't see the major difficulty unless the remaining opcodes are more complex functions to integrate with the window manager and hardware?
Still I'm guessing if it requires interrupts to handle the remaining opcodes then...
If you live in britain you can buy a usb ps2 controller for the pc from GAME for £13, pretty sure you can get logic3 and other dual-analogue usb rumble-pads equally cheap elsewhere.
I'm imagining that most peripherals will be usb or sdio based, there aren't really many pandora specific...
A lot of people are talking about needing to use openGL ES but the factsheet clearly states that all of the SGX series is capable of openGL 1.1+ and openGL 2.0 support. Now I'm wondering if anyone knows if we would have to pay for the conventional openGL support or if there's any reason we...
The 256MiB of internal flash is only for the firmware and 256MiB is more than enough, and also it's part of the ram chip so it's size is unlikely to change.
You will probably have to install everything onto a sd card, but then sd cards are replaceable so you wouldn't want to install stuff to...
Animated desktops are about as useful as a chocolate teapot, but that said it should be pretty easy to get an animated desktop if it runs the x window system.
I'm quite particular about things like this so I'd say 14 is the only logo that's anywhere near useable at the minute. For one it needs an icon and lettering, lots are just lettering, also the icon has to be simple enough that it can be rendered in as little as 16x16 for applications and things...
I'd rather have access to a straight headphone port for ease of use, but if having the adapter will make the design easier and mean that the pandora has less ports about the place then it's a good choice.
I'd rather have an all in one port than make the pandora look like a usb hub with lots of...
My pc is relatively new (AMD64 Dual 4200, 2GB DDR 800, Nvidia 8600GT OC, nForce mobo, etc) and almost every distro I have tried failed to boot (Incl. Ubuntu 7.10), whereas windows xp ran even before I installed the drivers off a disk.

I don't really see what you're getting at either. RAM is RAM, isn't it? If the video chipset can address the RAM then it shouldn't matter if it's faster than normal SDRAM or if it's shared with the CPU or whatnot.
Ah, there I go making assumptions again (gotta stop doing that). I had just...
