So what games from this pack can currently run on the Pandora? What games are we hopeful to see run on the Pandora in the future?

The browser is Firefox, so yes it will support multiple tabs and windows. As for Citrix, I'm not sure. I remember researching it one time and I know that they have ARM ports for WinCE. I'll check real quick for a linux ARM port... UPDATE: Yes, there is an ARM port for linux from Citrix located...

Weave is a Mozilla labs add-on that syncs your tabs, history, forms, and passwords with other computers/mobile devices. It is similar to the Google Chrome bookmark sync or the Xmarks addon for Firefox/IE/Chrome/Safari. Why not Webkit? Because the Mozilla foundation is proud of their Gecko...

Chrome actually has a fairly large extension repository now with a whole lot of Firefox addons converted over. These extensions (Adblock, Fasterfox, Userscripts, etc) were the last thing keeping me from moving over to Chrome. As with Firefox, you have to be careful which extensions you use. I...

Haha, I bought that Apple keyboard for my Pandora a month ago. I like the longer model, but didn't want to deal with trying to find a bag that could contain its additional length.

If I understand Craigix, Ari64, and other devs correctly: You see more. The field of view is widened horizontally. It is like playing a PC game in 5:4 and then switching to 16:10. The characters don't all of a sudden get really fat.

Please don't ruin that beautiful, beautiful keyboard that way. :P Those are actually worth a pretty penny now.

It appeared to me that it was due to small targets and inaccuracy with his stylus, minus the system menu which just took a while to load up.

I really do hope they have at least one general purpose LED, as I was wanting to use one as an indicator of a new instant message/email/tweet, etc. I'm not brave enough to try my soldering skills on a new toy.

Engadget is covering the Pandora again. This time they are referring to the newest official blog post that contains all the case production photos. I always find the comments of others interesting, so I thought I'd share the link and include a silly little poll. Edit: I hope this blog gets...

Google Voice + Ekiga or Pidgin or Empathy will be my SMS/Voice/Texting method.

Patience? The system isn't even out yet, so trying to motivate devs right now is exponentially harder.

Ah, but LDXE is a DE that utilizes openbox...

Ah, but I've been able to install many RPMs in Debian-based systems and vice versa.

Whoah, when did Arch decide to support ARM? This is wonderful news. I love that distro. Rolling release binaries for the win.

Ubuntu is the most popular currently, and there is a fair chance we will actually see it in some form on the Pandora eventually as a 3rd-party drop-in OS. Gentoo will also be one that will make it onto the Pandora. It is a good build-from-scratch system if you have the time for compiling. I...

I agree. I do not want the boards that went through hell and back. I want a shiny new board in mine, thank you.

I don't think it is a "give to the press" or "give to consumers" question here as it seems like Craigix doesn't want to use the burn-in boards in customer Pandoras. I think the option is more "temporarily give to the press" or "hold indefinitely as excess units".

HTC has announced they are porting 2.0 to the Hero, so it will definitely run on the Pandora as the Hero as a comparatively slow processor. 2.0 is supposed to be optimized for the OMAP as well, as that is what the DROID phone is running on.

WizardStan hit the nail on the head. I'm getting another keyboard for extended sessions. When I write a paper or fill out multiple forms I will use an external, when I'm answering tweets, Facebook, most emails, etc, I'll be using the onboard keyboard.
