    Pandora Rebirth case broken

    I've been out of the loop for a while... preordered a Pandora which I never received and haven't seen any emails in a while. Are you saying you're still building them? Are these for the pre-orderers or new purchases?

    Has *anybody* received a refund from OpenPandora Ltd (Craig's) in 2013?

    Craig: I appreciate seeing updates here... I sincerely hope you and ED can sort out all misunderstandings and move forward.  I was impressed with the goals of this project from the start, and it's amazing that it resulted in real devices (even if just a trickle of them).  Unfortunately, my...

    About Replacement Styli

    When I used to carry a Palm device, and later a Sharp Zaurus, I tried a bunch of different pen-sized stylus & stylus combo devices. My absolute favorite for price / feel / features was the Sanford (now Papermate) PhD Multi. Now days, you can still find them in stores, but usually with two...

    I The Red Baron

    Yes! I hadn't thought of that in years... CGA game, side-scrolling, really fun, except I could never win... a nuke would go off and kill me every time. I'm sure its requirements were such that it could run on DOSBox on the Pandora with ease... w00t! Oh weird... when I look for screenshots, I...

    New Case Pics From Fatih

    Whoa! That's the first I've seen of this scraper by Alec... Can someone direct me to his ID here, or PM me an email, or straight to the point, show me the source code of the scraper? I'd love to adapt it for my Pandora news page on my Netvibes. (currently just a lot of RSS subscriptions)

    Let's Guess What Is In The New Boxes?

    From all the news I've been following, I've heard very very little about the LCD displays... I'm guessing they would ship from manufacturer / distributor straight to the build facility Craig is working on, but I haven't seen them mentioned in terms of ordered / ready / etc... so my hope is...

    Eds Status On The Pandora Os - Disheartening

    Upon reading the OS update, I felt not even a slight twinge of concern regarding what the device will be like out-of-the-box. Why? Because I own other devices that rely heavily on open documentation and enthusiast communities: The Sharp Zaurus SL-5500 - Sharp pretty much stopped developing...

    (A)Gps Data Reception From Phones

    And in case that app discriminates based on OS version, etc... there is a Python Bluetooth GPS passthrough thing as well, which should work on most Nokias with the features. Here's a couple links: http://gagravarr.org/code/ http://gagravarr.livejournal.com/134849.html

    A Teaser For You Retro Fanatics .. Text Adventures Ftw!

    You rock! I've actually been using my Zipit Z2 to play old Scott Adams games that I remember from my Apple ][+... and a while back I was doing the same on my Zaurus. I'm glad someone's working on taking advantage of the UI space on the Pandora for this purpose... At 320x240 on the Zipit...

    Windows 95 Runs On N900 Via Dosbox

    For benchmarking purposes, I can say that I've run Starcraft on a Toshiba Libretto, clocked as a 100MHz Pentium, and it ran fine in single player, and lagged the whole game for everyone in an 8 person multiplayer. For multiplayer, I was using a 16-bit PCMCIA Ethernet adapter (no 32-bit support...

    Open Pandora Internet Question.

    Your Nokia 5220 supports the Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking profile... unless it is disabled through carrier software branding. If you have a data plan through your wireless carrier, you are pretty much good to go. You may need to explore your phone settings to link your specific GPRS connection...

    What Would You Want From A $50 Handheld Console?

    I'd want the features of the Zipit Z2... which retails at $50. :D That said, it is *not* optimized or intended for gaming, but after putting on a recent Debian image for it, and using its acceptable d-pad, you can play GB/GBC, NES, Doom, ScummVM, and more pretty well. I've seen screenshots...

    Pandora Nubs Acting As A Switch?

    Another way this would be very useful: if nub-as-mouse input is developed/enabled, moving the mouse cursor faster based on the extremity of nub tilt would be very helpful!

    Should I?

    Glad to help! Another plus with a Linux / ARM device like the Zipit is that any useful little scripts you write and any awesome apps you discover and get used to... those will run and run equal to or better on the Pandora when it arrives... The Pandora's features are a pure superset of the...
