I reject your reality and substitute my own
Actually it's a bit of "minor" news...
the chances that it would not pass where very small.
But very good news nevertheless, if it was only to see one more "green bar"
.
Edit: official blog entry also with some spicy/hot info about the testing

If I had the skills I'd make each of my words a link to a thread where it has been said before.

Congrats. I see that the tests focused on electric stuff.
Now drop Pandora from 2 meters on the sidewalk, and tell us if it breaks.
Then drop it 20 more times, and post photos
EDIT: it's not that I want to see a destroyed Pandora. It's only that accidents happen, no matter how careful you are. So how many times I can drop it by accident.

One can only assume both were done at the same time. We'll know more once the official PDF gets posted.

I just red the official blog post. Very informational as always
Congratulation on the Pandora passing CE
It's not like it was expected to fail but it's a very good thing it's finally done. One less thing to worry about.
Now it's only the cases and the the board populating (and the final assembly of course). I know the board did already start some time ago... Kind of wandering how many board of them are finished though.

I'm guessing it passed some of those tests by virtue of the (well designed) battery charging circuit. Spikes were buffered, static was grounded, all that jazz. This makes me feel very safe about the battery, something I was genuinely kind of concerned about. 4000 mah is a lot of stored energy, and it would suck if a sudden power outage or spike could cause it to rupture.

ED(I think) said that CE testing is enough to cover both(if needed) or something along those lines. It was a while back so I don't know where the quote is. It was decided that there won't be a separate FCC test.

Yes, no, I, this is.
There wasn't actually any FCC testing. CE testing is stricter than FCC testing. You don't need any specific testing for the FCC, the issue is that should the FCC ask about the product, you need to provide documents proving that the device meets all the requirements. Having the results from the CE testing puts us in the clear with the FCC, apparently.

Sorry, but I suck at explaining stuff :P
Congrats to the Pandora team. Another milestone passed

It was a resistor.
So, that checks off 'will it microwave' (yes, and other waves, but that doesn't sound as catchy).
And it blends, too. Shame about the camera tape running out JUST before the button is pressed

This is excellent news! One more line turned green on the status page. One less item that can hold up mass production. I'm really starting to believe we may actually see the Pandora shipped within a few weeks! Cheers to all! :lol:
