Volcanoes. Definitely.
Jokes aside, it's getting hard to stay calm. The mass produced Pyra is so close you can almost smell her. (although right about now, the smell should be like something burning)

I like to get excited. Ed will be super famous. He has saved our lost linux souls with Pyra.
Well, Nikolaus is testing them right now.
The CPU board he got (the reworked one) doesn't boot yet. The OMAP5 and Palmas Power Chip is initialized, but it doesn't boot yet - could be a DRAM issue, could be a µSD-Issue, could be a simple software issue.
It might be that one DRAM is not sitting properly.
The XRay had been done before the rework (to find out why the parts had been placed wrong), so it could be the rework still has a part not 100% placed (with BGAs, that's always an issue).
Nikolaus plans to solder his Debug MicroUSB-Port to the CPU board so he can read out why the OMAP5 doesn't want to boot and he should also get normally produced CPU PCBs soon as well.
The good thing is that the OMAP tries to boot through the mainboard, which means that the charger chip and power circuits are most likely working correctly.

Nah... I will enjoy the excitement of others, but have reserved my excitement for when I see 'this is your order number: xxxxxxxxx'...
But I guess in your case, that moment has already passed.
au contraire... first you buy a Pandora for 666, then, you condemn your soul with
And you know what? After I ran the CPU STRESS TEST on the Pandora... I couldnt even warm my hand... I pretty certain the Pyra will not keep my kebab warm. So much for the promise of pyra-kebab. How do I know? Because Debian transmutates all fire things to ice... so firefox becomes iceweasel. So you start up your browser... BAM... the room temperature drops. And now that you can have many many browser tabs open at once on the Pyra... I'm pretty sure I will be able to watch frozen on it.
on a serious note: Don't put your salvation/damnation on a piece of hardware. Its just that... hardware (and software.. don't forget the software).
bloopers and unused:
- Had to cross out fire because it only runs on macosx Fire_instant_messaging_client
- Johnny Pyro mixed with Evil Dragon gives Johnny Dragon. Like a Dragonball Fusion technique.
- Debian's ICEweasel, ICEdove, ICEwm. There is also ICE Johnny-Dragon connection: johnny-and-the-ice-dragon
- This was too ad-hominem to use (or he will ask for my order number...). But the fact the current logo is a greenish dragon... hmm... Not-So-Nice_Dragon Michaels-Struggle-Dragon-Facing-Evil
- I wrote BAM, but the sound is much softer. They have told us it is the flushing and disabling of the sound circuits. similar to the hum your fridge makes.
- This looks like one of the clamshell renderings of the Pyra: faced-semi-sweet-chocolate-bar-palette
- Her weapon of choice sound pretty much like a transformer stylus Pyrrha_Nikos
- According to this, you can be killled by destroying your Pandora: pandorahearts.wikia (Pandora is the heart of an Abyss and if someone takes it out of its contractor's body and destroys it, then the Abyss is destroyed.)
- Assembly instructions of the Pyra: ikea/pyra-wok-13-/assembly-instruction Great! I can buy the Pyra at IKEA!
- Pyra will have more daemons running than the Pandora.

Pyra prototype is booting up fine now. Not all feautures have been tested, but booting into the system works fine already
