This should be quite feasible as the nubs, buttons remain black. Maybe.


I think it looks quite nice, what other colours would look good?
 
The recessed areas around the nubs, buttons and screen would have to be indigo, also. You could probably do this if you were brave enough to spraypaint your Pandora.


I'll take one in Gamecube purple :D
 
yeah a dark purple I think would be nice ^^

Does masking tape work on Pandoras?


I'll have a go at a purple one...
 
My thinking was that some people would love purple, some would think it looked silly/strange. Deep indigo looks sleek without being inurface !colourful!
 
This looks amazing if I had a pandora I would do something like this but possibly a different shade.
 
@ those who asked for red/purple images:


I have experimented and drawn blank. Unfortunately the lack of colour range in the black original photo means that it is very hard to make it it brighter without going all postery & wierd.
 
I really like the trasnparent Pandora, but this Indigo one has some potential for a 3rd place color, as I'm a fan of the black, WITHOUT silkscreened white stuff. So glad that discussion has faded.

But the rest of us STILL have to field questions about the USB port and what the LEDs mean very often, which is exactly what we said would happen... :p

I agree that a (semi-)transparent Pandora would be cool. It might look cheap though (like a cheap plastik watch). And unless it is dark tinted I would probably still prefer black.


I think some kind of indication of what the LEDs are showing would still be good. A blinking light without indication of what it is blinking about is as usefull as no light at all ...
 
What the hell do the LEDs mean? Hahaha. The "on" LED and "charging" LED are the only ones I ever pay attention to.


I need a new case for my Pandora, whatever the colour. I'll probably have to get the 512mb version when it hits, as I'm slowly but surely destroying mine :(


Two words: Purple Anodised.


Two more: Yes, aluminium


One can dream!

That would look pretty cool. I have a nice snap-on 3DS case (though I only use the lid, since it wasn't designed around extended batteries) that's made of the same. It looks really smart.

On the right, the other two places don't actually have LEDs. On the left, from left to right it's: left SD access, right SD access, WiFi, and BlueTooth.


If you weren't being serious about not knowing, sorry. It's hard to tell. ;)
 
I'm probably mistaken but I thought I saw ED post that the new German Boards, will have a more orange BT LED, as the current ones ended up red like the WiFi. I agree with Prometheus though, that there has been alot of having to describe what light represents what, which silkscreening would have negated.
