    8GB SDHC CARD PROBLEM

    8GB SDHC CARD PROBLEM

    Thank you for a well reasoned argument. It's a rarity these days. I will say that I'm unsure of some of your argument though. The drivers issue can be an annoyance, for the layman. Games however, not so much. Probably depends on configuration and such but I've never taken even a small...

    8GB SDHC CARD PROBLEM

    Ahhhh, haha. Love your argument, you must have seen thank you for smoking. I'm not out to prove it's a wonderful system, but the random negativity is just silly. When it was still in beta it was just as terrible as everyone says it is. However, the only reason I'm using vista today is...

    Release skype on pandora

    HAHA! After reading this post you had me worried for a moment, I've been planning on having skype on there. It haden't occurred to me they'd be closed source... I don't know why... Anyways, I may have found a way, strike that, I'm fairly sure I found an EASY way. Skype was released for the...

    Accumulator / battery suggestion (LiFePO4)

    All of my arguments were correct, just that one of them was addressing an issue derived from me having a brain fart and forgetting completely that it was a reference to temperature... :wacko: It's been a long couple of days...

    Accumulator / battery suggestion (LiFePO4)

    Very well, but that does not address any of my other arguments, besides which, quotes from another article can not be a de facto retort in and of themselves. Besides which I have several lithium ion batteries which I have had for over 2 years and haven't exhibited more than a 5% capacity loss...

    Accumulator / battery suggestion (LiFePO4)

    Again, all the listed applications for these batteries in the last quote you gave are high drain, the pandora does not fit in this category. Besides which, if you feel that strongly, there will be nothing keeping you from finding a LFP battery to put in your pandora when you get it. Another...

    Release What about NDS emulation? Do you think it is possible?

    Gamestop still sells DS lites for $129.99... I know this, cause I just sold one to a customer right before we closed... I think they're still 109.99 used, that could have gone down though. I'm looking forward to seeing how the new DSi is going to be. Although, that's partially because I have...

    USB cable included?

    Basically a the USB-A port he's referring to is the USB Host port listed in the specs for the pandora. This is the same as the USB ports you'll have on your home computer. You'll be able to use it in much the same way, ie hooking up mice, keyboards, printers, gamepads, etc. This is the port...

    Gentoo Linux - Taking it On!

    Thank you javajake! That means I won't be doing this by myself! I don't think there is a chance that I'd be able to resist putting gentoo on it. I can't wait to start kernel hacking... Only problem being my gentoo box up and quit on me... just software, but I'm getting a new HDD for it...

    Accumulator / battery suggestion (LiFePO4)

    Really if you're talking performance right now it's pretty tough to beat a lithium-polymer, although these can be quite volatile. A123 systems batteries are not simple LiFePO4. They have a very specific design, with specific applications, this is not one. I've been working with high...

    Release Windows CE on Pandora?

    Not strictly speaking. Those licenses apply only to the device CE is loaded on. As I stated in my earlier post which by and large seems to have been ignored, there are legal ways to do this. Buy, or obtain a legal license from microsoft, it's not actually all that hard, and not even really...

    Bluetooth idea

    You're problem with a wiimote would be? Most bluetooth devices will work out of the box, so long as they are a bluetooth HID class, the drivers a and provisions should already be there for them. If the libraries for interacting with a wiimote are not already out there for linux, I fully intend...

    Bluetooth idea

    This all presumes that for some reason that his tablet is broadcasting it's mouse activity over bluetooth, and listening for mouse inputs over bluetooth. Basically the only way what you propose would work would be if he was using a bluetooth mouse. Furthermore it assumes that the mouse he's...

    Release Windows CE on Pandora?

    More power to you roshua, I'll not flame you being a mostly windows based dev myself. As to the licensing, there are ways to do it legally, such as this: -pulled from http://www.windowsfordevices.com/news/NS8969975443.html They also discuss a $3 dollar license. I found this info on a quick...

    WPA2

    The right chipset can help a lot. Some wireless drivers are terrible in linux, but I imagine they selected a chipset that works well, myself I'd love an Atheros set. Packet injection support would be phenomenal for security purposes, although likely not a concern of many. Also depends on how...

    alt.console.pandora newsgroup

    Ditto on hoping it can be somewhere other than alt.* The two biggest carriers in New York at least have blocked alt.* to "mitigate child pornography." Smooth move by the district attorney for New York. That is becoming the excuse in this country to ban any internet service a given politician...

    USB Power Question

    If you plan to use a hub, just use a powered hub if your worried, just like a regular computer. If your plugging things like mouses and keyboards in you won't need all that power anyways. If your plugging stuff in that actually uses that much power, a powered hub would be better anyways, so as...

    Slashdot effect

    Haha, you have no idea how many times I've asked myself the same question. I suppose it has something to do with not having a piece of paper stating a specific skill set. Ahh the drawbacks of being an autodidact. The other reason likely being that I live in Central New York, and the job market...
