    1st charge of 1ghz unit, won't go over 86%

    Ok, as an update, I used it for a little while then plugged it back in at around 81%. It's now charged up to 90% in about 30 minutes, but there is still no indication of a charge-- no light on the unit, nothing in the icon in the toolbar. Is there just no charging light after 80% or could there...

    1st charge of 1ghz unit, won't go over 86%

    Hi, I received my 1ghz unit today and I am trying to get it charged up and ready to go. I have been busy with other things today so I just plugged in the Pandora and let it sit (it turned itself on and wanted to do the initial setup, which I didn't do-- but the fact it turned itself on makes...

    how many 1 ghz preorders are left? and who has one coming !

    Mine showed up today (on my birthday! :) ) looking pretty much pristine, although I can understand the concern about a lack of protection. I was a little surprised everything was just packaged tightly together. Things seem fine although I am still trying to get it charged but that's for...

    Global Components did it again :)

    I was specifically told that my 1Ghz upgrade from Craig was actually going to DELAY my order because my original (1 Oct 2008) pre-order was due to ship in the next batch of units they received. And they gave me the chance to back out with that information...

    how many 1 ghz preorders are left? and who has one coming !

    I'm getting very excited to finally get to check one of these out... I even have a coworker willing to take me out to lunch to show him the Pandora, simply because I don't think he ever really thought I'd get it. Now to just hope the mail service doesn't do anything silly.. ;)

    how many 1 ghz preorders are left? and who has one coming !

    Just got my shipping notice from Jacquelyn! Woot! The long wait from 1 October 2008 is alllmost over.... (the funny thing is I actually extended my wait for the 1Ghz unit as I was told my original pre-order was just about to ship when these upgrades became available) Now where did I put that...

    Shipping to Canada

    I'm actually curious about this too, with my 1Ghz hopefully shipped this week from the UK to me in the US-- anyone know if/how much customs/duties/etc come into play?

    Global Components did it again :)

    Fantastic news! I'm #24 on Craig's queue for a 1ghz after upgrading my 1 Oct 2008 order... maybe I will see it here in the US in time for my birthday??? (the 22nd..) It will be funny to track down what coworkers I still have who remember when I ordered the thing in the first place. I've been...

    Being #24 in the queue sucks sometimes. ;) Congrats!

    how many 1 ghz preorders are left? and who has one coming !

    I was an Oct 2008 preorderer, and upgraded because I wanted the Pandora originally as an ultimate emulation machine and I figured the 1ghz model has a chance to stay that for a bit longer. :) (especially with the faster RAM and more L1 cache, will be nice to not HAVE to overclock so much, and...

    ... and production still is reliable and moving forward :) (2012-05-11)

    I was told that my 1 October 2008 order was set to ship in the NEXT batch of Pandoras Craig's store receives (not the one currently in transit)... Of course that was before I decided to upgrade to the 1ghz model. I've waited this long, what's another Two Months?

    ... and production still is reliable and moving forward :) (2012-05-11)

    As I've posted before, my (non-upgraded) preorder was with Craig's shop, 1 Oct 2008, 23:04 GMT, and no word of shipping -- I keep thinking it'll be "any day now".. or maybe Two Months. :)

    Faster delivery/upgrade - Craig's orders

    I'm personally still waiting for my order from 1 Oct 2008 (~22:00PM) so I think we're a bit farther back in the queue than that. ;)

    American Express

    Ok, the chargeback does appear to be the proper course of action for us Amex users... got this email from Debs in response to my email to her explaining what I was doing (and apologizing if the chargeback causes them issues): QUOTE No thats fine. The bank have told us that this is the only...

    Holiday Reordering Mini-update

    I hate to be the nay-sayer in all this but I'd really do the chargeback- or at least initiate the process- if I were you. (Which I already did). Since it seems like the office staff at Openpandora are telling people that chargebacks may be the only way we get a refund, I decided it's worth a...

    Holiday Reordering Mini-update

    Yeah, I know it's not guaranteed but given we're getting close to 90 days I'd rather be safe than sorry and at least get the investigation going and not find myself outside the window unable to do anything. I resisted doing a chargeback hoping it would all sort itself out but given the latest...
