Dear Pandora Community
I recently had an opportunity to fly from Linz Austria to my home area of San Francisco California. You know it is funny that I can get on a machine and spend 18 hours of my life traveling many 1,000s of miles and be anything other then completely elated or in awe at the wonders of modern living. Alas I'm human and that seems to imply that i have a short memory and somewhat myopic view and demand to be entertained even as the manifestations of countless generations is going off around me. So i booted up my Pandora. I turned on my music with the program Deadbeef. At the same time i turned on the NES emulator and played many games from my youth. It turns out I'm not nearly as good at Duck tales as I though i was, and cant seem to find all the heart pieces in the legend of Zelda anymore.
The battery held up fantastically, the software for the emulator executed flawlessly, and the music came through loud and clear. It was a remarkable experience. The hours passed by very quickly and the combined efforts of all the engineers from the Wright brothers to the development team for the A380 I was a passenger on were completely dwarfed by the magic black box within my hands.
I eagerly await new software and further development with the hardware available. With sincerity, I want to thank any and all who have written a line of software for the Pandora or spent time building or designing the hardware. I would hope that any person who is activly working with this product who is having a hard day understand that their work is appreciated and well used. Perhaps should my life calm down a bit I would be able to be more then just a cheerleader but in the timeless words of April O'neil in the dam level of ninja turtles for the NES "You have my support" :lol:
