    Selling first batch Pandora

    I just listed it on eBay and it occured to me that not so many people in the wide world will know what I'm talking about. Maybe someone here is interested in something to tide you over till Pyra ships? https://www.ebay.com/itm/324177950617 It's pre-loved, but with a new battery. Details/pics...

    Lcd Turning On When Lid Is Closed

    Has anyone else seen this? Occasionally, when I pull the Pandora out of my pocket, it feels a little warmer and I can see (through the slightly lifted left side :) ) that the screen backlight is on. It's not a huge deal, but it depletes the battery faster than I'd like. Presumably there is...

    Smaller Battery

    Getting the obvious objections out of the way first: Pandora's big battery is awesome and the kind of battery life that we are seeing for continual usage is great. There are tons of reasons why someone might not want to consider having a smaller battery and reducing that. This is a given...

    Pandora will not power on

    Hi, I've seen a couple of issues relating to units not booting or powering on. I seem to have a slightly different problem to ones mentioned in other threads so I thought I'd see if anyone has any ideas before I totally give up on this Pandora unit. This is a replacement unit that I just...

    Bluetooth Audio

    Hi, I've not seen many people asking about this, but anyway I've been trying to pair a Jabra BT3030 stereo bluetooth headset with the Pandora for untethered tunes and I have some success. The headset pairs no problem, but there is some more work needed to get sound coming out. Edit this file...

    Bezel Issue

    I'm feeling lucky that I seem to have avoided any of the other hardware faults that I've seen posted on the boards (not surprised, just feeling lucky), but I do have the 'Bezel Issue' - the bottom bezel on my screen is bowed out. Now it's not a huge deal, but it would be nicer if it didn't do...

    Teardown?

    Just wondering if anyone was up for posting some teardown pictures? I'm not planning to open my Pandora up at this point, but if someone was doing it anyway, maybe they could post some detailed pictures? I think what people would be particularly interested in are: - Any spaces inside the case...

    Mounting Nfs Share

    I'm keeping this separate from the Windows share discussion since I'm expecting different audiences. When I try to mount a local NFS share, I'm getting this rather unhelpful error: mount.nfs internal error I know my /etc/exports is good on the server, because I'm mounting these shares on...

    Followup Reviews?

    I haven't been counting, but I think there are 5 or 6 Pandoras in the wild in actual, albeit prototype, cases. Maybe more in FDMs? @those who have them; I was just wondering if anyone cared to venture a followup review after a month or so of having it? For example, are there day-to-day things...

    Suspend To Ram

    Looking at the latest video of PMenu, it seems we have about a 40 second boot time. I have no particular opinion about whether that is good or bad, because I had been intending to actually boot very rarely and just keep my Pandora in suspend mode when I'm not using it. I wondered: Is suspend...

    Should I Teach Hunch.com About The Pandora?

    Yes. Yes you should: http://www.hunch.com/buy-a-pandora/ I've just found out about hunch.com(it's just out of beta) and it looks sort of interesting - it's a crowdsource decision maker. Obviously, this is a slightly biased crowd, but maybe some would like to add to a "Should I buy a...

    How Big Is The Pandora?

    Heyo, I guess the topic speaks for itself. Now that there is a new case design, and completed working prototypes on the horizon, I wonder if the dimensions on the wiki need updating. Some of the chatter seems to indicate that the Pandora is now thicker than the originally quoted 27mm. a

    Gp2x As Edutainment Device

    So I was thinking of something noble that my GP2X could do once I have another device that I expect to fulfill it's uses and I thought; maybe it could be re-purposed as a "My first freakin sweet linux based expandable handheld game console and pmp"™ for my son. So I wondered if:anyone knew of...

    Mock Preorder!

    In response to much of the speculation of whether there will/should be an advance pre-order for forum members, and what would happen if there was, this is an experiment. Imagine this is that pre-order notification. The rest of the world will be officially told in 5 days. What do you do...

    Test Of The Preorder Email System

    Hello everybody. My name is Al and I'm a GP32X Pandora forums addict. It has been approximately 2 minutes since my last F5. So anyway, something that would really help me be less obsessive about this as we get into August would be getting a confirmation email from the OpenPandora preorder...

    Onenote Equivalent For Linux?

    Heyho, I recently upgraded to Office 2007 and so discovered OneNote 2007, and it's pretty fancy. Essentially you can add text notes, pictures, web snippets, screenshots, and it keeps them organized, you can search and share them. You can add calendar items and it keeps them sychronized. All...

    1yr T-mobile Wifi Hotspot Access

    Patents

    Hey, Don't worry, this is not a "Can we have a tablet mode" thread, I'm just curious; there's been a lot of mention that sliding keyboards, rotating screens, screens that fold all the way back are patented. Does anyone know which actual patents we are talking about? I've just spent an...
