Another great idea. I really like this, as I love the Game Boy version of Tetris.

Mind sharing, what is making the Wifi module choice hard?

My guess:
- many chips available
- state of Linux drivers (to avoid issues found on the Pandora)
- impact of casing

Open or closed code on the userspace part, blob or non blob, space on the board, power consumption, powersaving features, master mode and other features
There are many things to consider

find one that actually connects to your access point without being in line of sight and further away than 20 feet away and transfer more than 200kbps
or be like my first one and not create a constant drain on the battery that wouldn't give me more than 24 hours on standby
I kid... sorta

Good stuff Ed. Christmas 2014 is the release date right?
A Christmas release date would be kinda funny, with Pyra being developed by Dr.Nikolaus ... get it?

I really hope that micro-USB port is held down with more than just two solder points...You probably all seen the latest pictures of the PCB, but as I visited Nikolaus today and grabbed some things for the GamesCom, I've made some nice photos for you

This is the main PCB with the Dummy CPU PCB beside it.

And the other side of the main PCB.

It doesn't look like it's plated throught, so it's SMT only from the looks of it...

it'a all about wayland now, got any info on that?
Wayland is supported by TI, but as long as it's not a full X.Org replacement, we won't use it.
Additionally, we always want to support standard X as well, as Wayland always uses the GPU which increases the power usage.
And finally, using the framebuffer for stuff like SDL or PCSX / PicoDrive is not possible with Wayland and DRM - and it's way faster if we can use it directly.
There's six big pads under the connector:I really hope that micro-USB port is held down with more than just two solder points...You probably all seen the latest pictures of the PCB, but as I visited Nikolaus today and grabbed some things for the GamesCom, I've made some nice photos for you
