    Finally, a bit more news!

    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...

    Finally, a bit more news!

    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...

    Changing BitPay delivery address

    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.

    Bitcoin

    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...

    Bitcoin

    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.

    USB tethering to Android

    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...

    GamesCom Video and Remaining Tasks

    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?

    Pyra prototypes?

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

    No prototypes for GamesCom, but a Wifi Chip and a Pyra in the dark!

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

    The case and the keymat

    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...

    Best place for Australian orders?

    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...
