Does The Pandora Have A Microphone And Where Is It Placed?

[txd]

Title explains it all.

I was wondering of this because this could mean we could make some kind of VoIP perhaps, which would be neat.

 

[gaterooze]

Yes; don't know.

Don't quote me on this but I think it is on the hinge so it can be used open or closed. Maybe that was something else. Search the boards. I think mweston said the answer.

EDIT2: i searched and i found. Its located between 0 and 9 and can see use when the lid is closed too. Like the power indicators

Broken link.

The microphone is up in the right hinge hump in between the 9 and 0 buttons. It can be used with the lid open or closed since it has the hole facing up and slightly in toward the user (somewhat like the power LED).

i read the whole FAQ, and so i don't have to start a new topic, will it have a camera/webcam so I can video chat? and aren't some people working on IMing? will that have a webcam program?

There is no camera built in, you can use a USB camera if you have the drivers..

What I'm curious about, is how well you could use the Mic to cancel out noise in the environement. This idea just came to me, and I haven't been able to find if it required multiple Microphones on the headphones themselves, which is what I would assume (still searching though).

Edit: Nevermind, I found the answer.

 

[polkunus]

im just gonna plug in a microphone

There are also some sdio cameras about. I don't know anything about sdio so I don't know if default drivers would be able to properly handle the input.

This is cool because there are two sd slots on the pandora.

does anyone own a sdio camera? I wonder if the thin connection makes for a nerve wrecking time while constantly fearing the snap of the camera from the card.

This is interesting just for giving you the idea about what there is.

Is that serious. Or a joke?

They're SDIO cards. The Pandora supports SDIO cards (assuming a driver is available)

Sweet someone should make that 3rd SD slot that the OMAP3 supports, so we have room for a SDIO.
Because there's no way sacrificing the 2 slots that's already there :lol:

No joke, just a selection of functions SDIO can serve.
