My expectation was that seven years after placing my preorder, I would have a Pyra in my hands. Yes, I knew there was risk. Yes, it was my decision to pay in bitcoin. Yes, a few Pyras have shipped, so it's not completely vapourware. Let me change my assessment from "vapourware" to "in...

The Pyra is vapourware. I paid 1 bitcoin for my preorder in May 2016, a full 7 years ago now. Today, that bitcoin would be worth nearly US$30,000. There is always "progress" on development, but nothing ever really gets done. ED gives us reassuring words, he is still committed, he is still...

Cool, thanks for letting me know

Hi there, I paid for my Pyra preorder using BitPay. At the time I provided my PO box as a delivery address, but I've had a lot of issues delivering international orders to the PO box. I would like to change the delivery address to my residential address. Is there a way I can do this? Thanks.

I bought 13 BTC in 2013 and spent them on mining hardware, earning back about 3 BTC (because I didn't understand the difficulty mechanism, and that you make less when more people mine). I then sold those 3 BTC for about AU$850 each. Today Bitcoin is trading for about AU$10,000 each. I wish I'd...

Hi EvilDragon, I preordered a Pyra for 1 BTC when they were worth roughly 400 euro. Now they are worth ten times that much. Is there any chance of a bonus for people who paid with bitcoin? Maybe an extra Pyra? You'll still have made a fortune.

Hi everyone, I am aware that the Pyra has a SIM slot and a cellular data connection. However, in Australia, it is much cheaper to tether to an existing mobile phone device than to add a data-only plan (I'm with Telstra). I have a Samsung Galaxy S6, and it is possible to tether it to my Windows...

Great to hear that all the known bugs have been fixed. Can't wait for the prototypes to start going out!! :D

Thanks for clearing that up :)

Great news. Just a quick question: I paid for my preorder with Bitcoin. Will I have to pay the final price in Bitcoin as well?

Hi everyone, I'm about to place a preorder, but I just want to confirm which Mobile Ed. I need to buy for Australia. I assume it's the EU version, but can someone confirm this for me? Many thanks

With Telstra, you can add a data share SIM that combines with your mobile phone plan. Costs as little as $5/month. https://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/plans-and-rates/share-your-data

I have a degree in software engineering, but am not a kernel hacker. I would pay money to field test a prototype.

I wouldn't mind paying a bit more for 5GHz. I have a dual-band router.

Great to hear :)

Hi all, I'm a newbie, really looking forward to the Pyra. :) I plan to use my console as an all-in-one emulation platform, especially for N64 games. I was hoping that the 6 face buttons might more closely resemble the N64's controller. The four standard buttons are fine to use as C-buttons...

Cool, thanks! I've placed a preorder on openpandora.org

Hi all, I'm a newbie here! :D I'm interested in Open Pandora because I'd love to have a portable device that plays SNES games. There are a few portable SNES clones on the market, but they are all NTSC and don't support my Australian PAL cartridges. An emulator on a Pandora seems to be a good...
