Wait, I'm confused, didn't Craig say the new nubs were being moved down? And I'd love to see a picture of the AV port that will be included.

Only Amiga makes it possible
Guess that was before the "constructive negotiations with the nub manufacturer".God Ginrai said:

Well the nubs not moving down means a new case doesn't need to be manufactured, so that's a good thing, IMO. Anyways, thanks for the update! Though it looks like there's an awful lot of dev-related stuff going on in August; perhaps the August preorder is now September preorder, with an October release? 
*cringes* Please tell me I'm wrong! Either way, it'll be worth the wait. Looking forward to seeing that final unit!

I bet you'd pick up Chinese in a jiffy, or any other foreign language for that matter, hmm?God Ginrai said:
Chinese people (among others) make an especially high effort to learn English and along with it the Latin alphabet, so the least you can do is not make cheap stereotypical jokes on their expense, regardless of context.

if there were no stereotipical jokes in the world it would be a rather dull place ... oh and btw we are off topic here

Or you could make cheap stereotypical jokes at their expense, but then feel really, really bad about it later. :lol:Alex. said:

I made the stereotype joke to show my discontent with this "custom" nub that sounds like a PSP nub. I understand that English is a hard language to learn, and I think it is great that they're trying to do it. But that doesn't make me any happier about this nub.
btw, on the subject of learning foreign languages, depending on what languages you DO know, some become much easier to learn. For example, German is a lot easier to learn, having known English, than French or Spanish. (that is in my experience)

You're late on the uptake. We've been talking about that blog post for the past page.cherrycyanide said:

Nope, it isn't the PSP nub. In fact it is a custom design made specifically for Pandora based on a technology this company has employed in other designs for years. It is a totally unique, one of a kind design (meaning no other device has this part and not that we invented the analog nub), and I hope everyone likes it. It moves around just the like PSP does, but it feels quite different. My comparison is that the PSP nub feels grainy. This nub feels smooth.God Ginrai said:

i guess those manufacturers didn't want to produce 2.5 mm nubs, eh?
oh well. 2mm is good too
I was also wondering about the official news

Sorry, but I suck at explaining stuff :P
Doubtful.. There's still the normal audio out on the front. This port is just used for the TV-out etc. (as far as I'm aware). Same as the 2Xaliking said:

That's not how it sounds. That's why I asked for a picture.

If you look at the older board picture..
..you can see that the audio jack is already attached and the AV port is also on with the older style AV port already hooked up.
I don't see any reason why changing the AV port would require modifying anything other than the back of the case design?
It's a bit too late in the game for board re-design, so chances are they went for a better AV port with the same pin-outs as the old one and haven't even touched the audio jack in the front.
You never know though :lol:
