You bring shame to all large vehicles.

Hmmm, you know, now that I think about it, the amount of dedication Craig and the rest of the team have is often mirrored by comic-book supervillians working on their secret project to take over/destroy the world/solar system/universe. The whole project could be a front. All the random delays...

Material is more important to me than color, so I chose chrome, but if I had the choice I'd want a black metal stylus.

Wow, considering everything that's happened so far, you guys have the worst luck I've ever seen. Can you randomly pick a few stocks that are going to do well for me? I'll go ahead and short-sell them and donate my profits to the dev fund. Here's to hoping for smooth sailing the rest of the way...

Still thinking about it. My gut tells me I'd be safe doing a bank transfer, but I'm the type of person who pretty much never listens to what my gut tells me. I trust Craig and the rest of the Pandora crew, I'm just hesitant about losing my money if something unforseeable and uncontrollable...

This isn't exactly a video, but I want some realistic battery tests. I'm very curious to know just how close we can get to that oft-quoted 100 hours of mp3 playback estimate.

Trying to forget about it until it arrives, more or less. I've gone from checking this forum once every hour or so for news to checking it every couple of days. I know that when I get it, I'll be excited, but I've got other stuff to hold my attention until then, like new PC games and the shiny...

I believe he is referring to the O. Henry story entitled The Gift of the Magi, in which a husband and wife each sell a valuable possession without telling each other. They both use the money to buy the other an accessory for the item the other sold. Also, it is unlikely that Christmas is...

I'm in North America, and probably one of the first few pre-orders here, and I have yet to receive any email. I don't think anybody from North America has said they've been contacted yet. I'm too lazy to find the relevant post, but the orders are being processed by region and North America just...

If you paid by credit, debit, or some other type of real or virtual plastic, basically anything other than a bank transfer or money order, yes you might get an e-mail. Apparently it's not all people who paid with a credit-card and there is no discernible pattern to who has to re-order. This is a...

Yeah, I think we should start with trying to get GoldSrc (HL1 engine) on the Pandora first, or for that matter clients for any of their games on at least x86 Linux. I've heard the rumors about them porting Source engine to Linux, but personally I'm rather skeptical. I would love them even more...

QUOTE Chatbot: Do you believe in magic? You: No Chatbot: You don't? Too bad. You: Do you? Chatbot: Yes. You: Why? Chatbot: Because I'm Canadian.

But that makes even less sense. 21.2Ah at 14.8V is 312Wh, or roughly five times the capacity of the battery on my laptop, yet supposedly (if you do the math) at approximately 1/23 of the size of the Pandora. If all items in the picture are scaled equally and it isn't a photoshop job, it looks...

Ugh, true, which is why I wish all batteries were measured in Wh. According to wikipedia, though, li-poly batteries generally vary between 2.7V and 4.23V. If they're basing it on the voltage of the external device, the lowest it supports is 5V (USB). The only way that capacity would be...

Wait, what? # Capacity : 21200 mAh # Dimension : 53.10x35.20x7.35mm There's no way that could be right, could it? A battery that small couldn't possibly have that high of a capacity. Maybe they mean cm and not mm...

They have previously stated that they will ship individual Pandoras as they are are assembled in order of who preordered earliest.

This has been answered before, but it's understandable not reading through the dozens of pages of posts about the issue that were made today. This change will almost certainly not cause any delay, the displays are what's taking the longest. Right now they only have about 640 of them. Also the...

Craig said that the memory change was as compensation for reordering issues, not that the memory change would require reorders. We didn't wait six months for the memory, and I seriously doubt we'd wait six months more for 512MB. There were unforseeable problems (e.g. prototypes destroyed in...

Um, wow. Craig (and the rest of the Pandora team), it's completely official now. You rock.
