I'm glad Pandora hasn't appeared on Engadget for a review or update about shipments.
I think once first batch is cleared, second batch will have
1) the software bugs fixed
2) UI improvements to make it more appealing
3) All parts ready (case protectors, cables, chargers, TV out etc)
4) Assembly process will be more efficient (less faulty ones and quicker assembly)
5) All major emulators published and improved (from Atari to N64, improvements can just be less overhead or UI of the software)
Then I think Engadget should do a revision and a "Will it blend" episode.
I think if the order is large enough (6,000?) the publicity will be worth it!
... a little optimistic I know.
