Got Your Pandora? Describe It In One Sentence!

[Nupfi]

Pandora - 2 months is the new 2 years.

Just kidding.

 

[Beholder]

Hey Baby, I've got a versatile solution to all of your computing and gaming needs... in my pocket.

'least, thats what I would say.

Pandora - It's porn in your pocket

[Viral18]

"Combining the past with the future -that's the Pandora's present"
"My Pandora never leaves my person... EVER "

Hmmm, everything I think of either sounds too slogan-ish, too insincere or too crazy.

 

[Prometheus]

That's the problem I had, too - and mine was something I actually said when describing it to a friend, as well. :blink:

 

[VRAndy]

"If my regular computer was a workbench, my Pandora would be a Swiss Army knife that can plays games."

 

[doublebeta]

I've got stuff to do. Where's my Pandora?

I'm horny. Where's my Pandora?

"The anti-socialising gadget of choice!"

Pandora: Play games as ancient as the name!
Too bad I don't actually have a Pandora(yet! Batch *4* here we go!), so i don't fit the criteria...

"Essential bit of kit"

"User replaceable battery rocks!"

"Perfect companion to my pay as you go phone"

"No monthly charges, Huzzah!"
..Trip

"Sturdy and solid, just the way a computer should be"
..Trip

"One of the most useful gadgets you will ever buy.. Ever!"
..Trip

"Definitely one of the better ways to waste a day"

Of course I haven't received mine yet but from all the review I've read, I doubt I'll be disappointed

[mosschops]

It's the punk rock of handhelds!

[Tobriand]

"A netnetbook with gaming controls that flies in nearly everything it tries to do and feels as natural as a piece of technoogy can to use"

Should do the job. Other less informative, but still true possibilities might be:
"It's ace"
"The device I thought I needed for a couple of things and ended up using for nearly everything"

 

[Gerix]

I haven't gotten mine yet, but I like to say, "It's not what it can do. It's what I can do."

I'm pretty sure I stole that from someone.

[quote name=MDave]setting up a development environment being hard!

Bollocks! Compiler on-board == easiest way to build apps for Pandora!

Frak yes it is! I've built everything I've put out so far directly on the Pandora. Deathtrap Remix took seconds to compile, eduke32 takes about ohhh 5 minutes. Remmina took seconds. Download source, check dependencies, ./configure&&make cram into a PND... pure awesome.

I love compiling right on the Pandora. If you aren't running your OS off an SD card you're missing out.

I tried that, but I kept getting wifi drops causing the toolchains to fail.

Anyway, I'm up and running at last today, thanks to DJWillis guide here: http://blogs.distant-earth.com/wp/?p=109

I need a cross compiling environment, and ease of installing additional libraries

I like that one.

The romantic version:

Pandora, ecstasy is but two months away.

The Realistic version:

Pandora, ecstasy is but 12(two months), one banking crisis, several long winded case revisions, one roof, one volcano, one church hall, one small wifi resistor, one forum and several OPT heroes away.
