New Pix From Mweston!

[MDave]

The battery cover looks a lot smoother then I thought it was going to be.

Anybody know what the piece above the X button in the first picture is?

Happy Birthday MW!
Shame about other package, but looking good.
I'm assuming moulding factory still working on problem parts?
So we should get all the rest, can't wait.

We have a Saturday post here in the uk - nothing unusual about that!

When not on strike

If that is the final button layout then I'm happy! Just like playing SNES *grin*

 

[Etinin]

Happy birthday, Mweston, you deserve a break.

The moulded parts look awesome. I just hope the company is done with the changes in the upper parts soon.

I came to the forums hopeful for some encouraging news on the Pandora, and these pictures are great.

Can't wait to (fingers crossed) see the entire case next week! Happy birthday, MWeston!

I think that they are the rubber feet for the case.

I was thinking that, too - I just didn't want to say in case it was something else that I should have been able to guess. :lol:

I also think they might go on the face of the screen over screws or something to prevent scratches.

Yes, that 12 days you've been waiting since paying must have been HELLISH!

Good catch! Heh.

Those parts look great.

Happy Birthday Michael! I love the smooth cool sheen, it's so much better than piano black! Looks to be quite fingerprint resistant. For those on about the button arrangement. The keying on the buttons is exactly the same, so no matter what layout it ships with, changing it to suit your liking will be a simple un-screw, swap, and reassemble.

I think having the money in there from the start counts for more.

Anywho, those buttons look lovely, much nicer then I would of thought!

... Happy Birthday dear Michael,
Happy Birthday to you..... I thank you.

Because you have had your money in it for 12 days, come back and bitch and whine after a year like the rest of us.

And recompile your favourite games to use your custom button map?
If the Pandora itself provides some form of remapping then I'd easily agree with you but just swapping the buttons around does not magically swap buttons around in the software.

Hey, Consequence9 - could you edit your post so it links the images from PandoraPress, so as not to get MWeston's Photobucket account suspended?

I just got the media library function on the blog fixed, so this is easy

Like Xmodmap?

And Happy Birthday Michael from (very) cold Sweden!
