I received my pre-order voucher today. Looks like ED fixed the glitch that prevented the first few orders from getting one. I just hope that my place in the queue is unaffected!

I also hope i will keep my place in the queue (0:04:53 :) ).
However, it does not seem like i received my voucher yet (no list entry in "my vouchers",no mail received about the voucher except the mails stating my payment has been received and two other), but the state of my order is now shown as "Pyra Pre-Order").
Maybe i have received it but dont know where it would be listed in the shop.
 
OK,
ordered mine today (EU Mobile, 4Gig). Unfortunately I've to stay 'safe' at the moment, so the spare unit Pyra will have to wail until the end of the year :-(
 
I've just made my Preorder for the Standard 4GB model.
I'm new here (first post) - will price for the console likely increase in the coming months, and thus our "down payments" require more funding? Or are these prices all set without shipping and VAT?
 
So do none of the models work on Verizon? On my phone and it's kind of hard to navigate heh..

Yep mine also says pyra pre ordered also. I did mine at 0:08:00
 
It is great to see so many new faces on the boards, several of you even long time lurkers. Glad to see you have decided to finally join the boards and participate in a great community.

Well I've been lurking for about 8 years now. I didn't pull the trigger on the pandora back then but I remember getting excited over stuff like the change from 128MB to 256MB of ram. @EvilDragon it looks like you care a lot about this project so you've got my preorder, please do your best!

That's some hardcore lurking you've been doing there :) Welcome aboard!

Preordered one just now. I'm glad I held back on buying a Pandora (not by choice though ^^), now that there's a successor coming XD

The Pandora was a great device but it certainly had its flaws. EvilDragon and his team have way more experience these days, I am confident that the Pyra is going to be fantastic.

I preordered. I've been following Pyra's development occasionally for two years. I'm glad to see it getting close to release. I'm really looking forward to using it, I've wanted a new handheld with a physical keyboard for a long time.

Glad you are joining us for the ride!

Been following this project since the beginning. I've proudly owned all of the GamePark systems since the GP32x days. I owned the first original preordered Pandora (Not the Rebirth or Classic), and despite any of the technical issues and quirks of the systems build, and "2 Month" hilarious situations... I had complete faith in those passionate enough to bring it to us at the time. With that said, I proudly preordered the Pyra 4GB because I believe in what EvilDragon and his crew are creating. I believe in the power of creation and innovation and the power of this community.

I've seen a lot of shit happen over the years in this community. If I have to name one person who has always handled matters fantastically, beyond the call of duty, then I name EvilDragon. Despite the delays and despite the shenanigans of Craig, Michael stuck with the community and is now following up with an even greater device. The Pandora made a new market, let us build on this with the Pyra.

It takes some time. I worried something went wrong for me as well, but I just came back from work and noticed my voucher mail waiting for me.

Hi, l'm just comparing dragonbox.de minus 2000. How do you do that?

There are also these for tracking progress:

Try not to have too many scripts polling the site, we don't want to overload it.

Welcome to the boards. Down payment prices include VAT as is customary in the EU. Prices are as listed on the preorder page:

* Pyra Standard Edition, 2GB RAM: 500 EUR without VAT (=595 EUR incl. VAT)
* Pyra Standard Edition, 4GB RAM: 529,41 EUR without VAT (=630 EUR incl. VAT)
* Pyra Mobile Edition, 2GB RAM: 600 EUR without VAT (=714 EUR incl. VAT)
* Pyra Mobile Edition, 4GB RAM: 626,05 EUR without VAT (=745 EUR incl. VAT)

Expect the final price to be as advertised.
 
well since there was a 200 unit pre-preorder it complicates things. I was number 4 according to the signed PCB in that.
 
We're at over 400 and it hasn't even been 2 full days yet and we don't know how many of the pre-pre-orders haven't done the "pre-order" yet. Many respectable sites haven't even been made aware of the pre-order yet so there could be more coming.
The EU 4G is getting over half the orders so is most likely going to happen and the US 4G about 15% so far. Let's hope things keep going well all week.

We could restrict the thread to preorders between 0:00 and 6:00 (the time with the real "who is first"-contest and the F5-spam).

Extrapolating the current ratios to 1,000 preorders gives ~500 EU 4G and ~150 US ones. At 1,500 preorders it will be ~750 EU vs. ~250 US modules. Currently it looks like there have to be around 3,000 preorders to reach the MOQ for the US 4G module.

Well he'll be able to buy the chips at around 400 orders I'd gather, as he'll need some for replacements and such.
