I found this site in my quest for a portable to do emulation besides the regular ones out there. I soon found out that it looks like a new model is in the works so I figured I would wait and see.
The one question I have is if one would be able to use this pandora as a GPS navigator? If it had a CF or even a SD slot you can plug a receiver right in. Here are some receivers that could work. They even have bluetooth ones too.

It has two SD slots, so hypothetically you could put an SDIO GPS receiver in one and use it, but you would need drivers for the receiver and GPS software, neither of which are likely to be included out of the box. The potential is there, though.
 
It also has USB, so you could hook up a USB GPS receiver much easier and cheaper than a SDIO one.
 
There you go. All we would need is some GPS software. I'm willing to bet that would be a big task. I don't know much about creating software though.
 
I'm sure someone will. It might even already be there in Debian ARM, which would make it even easier.
