Not exactly

I didn't have to pay for the Pandora CE, but for the gp2x.
Devices with CE are randomly tested within the EU.
If they fail, you've got problems...
The gp2x failed when used together with the TV Out cable (it disturbs FM Radio).
In my case, I had to pay 5000 Euros (which really did hurt... that's when I created the Donate button at the archive) and I'm not allowed to sell the TV Out cable within the EU.
It's better to test before... well GPH DID test, but only without the TV Out cable... and I was the one who had to pay for it here, as I am the distributor.
