Am I Famous Then?

So, forgive me for not knowing, but what is it you've written that's got Fatih in such a tizzy?

Not Fatih - a friend of his that met up and had a play on the Pandora (he isn't too impressed with it, btw, but he does say that the analogue controls are really nice) uses ZXSpin, my speccy emulator. He wants it translating to Turkish, and pesters me about it many times a day.

Did his friend post a story about his experiences online somewhere?

What exactly wasn't he impressed with?
Just curious :)

Ofcourse he's impressed! But it seems he's trying to look cool. :p

I shouldn't do this, but... my IRC log - it's his impression of the Pandora, and I think it's fair. He has actually used one.

[21:48] <ref_laptop> eheh, keys are a bit unresponsive, I didn't realized that I missed "A" key
[21:49] <ref_laptop> but the analog controllers are perfect :D
[21:50] <ref_laptop> and usb ports are very funcitonal. I tested my generic GPRS usb modem, and it detected it and used it, nice.
[21:50] <ref_laptop> and multimedia funcitons are working perfectly.
[21:51] <ref_laptop> but screen is a bit saturated and low-contrast.

And no, I'm not sure what would cause something to be "funcitonal", though I am informed that it means that something is coloured in a trippy way, like tie-dye. A "funciton" is a measurement of weight in Turkey, I think - we would probably call them "groovy tonnes" in England.

It was beta software and who doesn't type wrong all the time, that's what backspace is for. :)
Of course it may not be absolutely perfect, but I doubt it'll bother too many people anyway. Everyone else who has used it(the devs + Balzac2m) said that typing is pretty good, so maybe he just needed to get used to it/had a bad unit.

Since I live in Canada, Turkey is for me a southern country, as is any other country that borders the Mediterranean (or receives large numbers of seasonal visitors from colder countries during the winter)... the point is, it is far more sunny than where I live, and many screens look washed out in the sun.

Well played, fellow Canadian.

Well, can't read too much into that, the UK is on the same latitude as Siberia.
