With the recent Status update for the Pandora, and the setbacks we have with the lcd's i started thinking about what this means for production of other parts of the pandora.
The wifi antennae is now being developed at the best they can without paying a professional to maximize wifi signal and its design. If you dont agree with what im saying, its probably because i am extremely simplistic and cautious at heart, but i was thinking about the support from the community behind this project. My thoughts as i tried to sleep then wondered onto the dev fund that was opened when pandoras were ordered, one thing led to another and i thought about a new fund that could be opened (if enough support was shown), since we may now have to the time to carefully piece everything together.
this fund would be to pay someone with extensive knowledge of wifi to maximize wifi design, i would think that there would be enough people willing to chip in the extra few dollars, euros and whatever else they may be paying in to get something that is sure to be a success. PLEASE, i mean no disrespect to the dev's working on the wifi, all intentions are just to help maximize efficiency.
The design may be far in enough now that it wouldnt be worth it, or this may be seen as a stupid idea, in either case feel free to close and delete this thread. My only real intention was to avoid one of my biggest pandora scares which is the first batch pandoras wifi signal is functional, but improved for the 2nd batch and my friends laugh at me for not having waited (scary thought). This one piece of hardware just seemed to stand out as a avoidable possible problem, falling into the better safe than sorry category.
