Silkscreening

[gruso]

If you're using a terminal emulator to access the SD cards you'll access them as /media/mmc1 and /media/mmc2 so the 1 and 2 would be slightly helpful for those that don't read/count left to right. Maybe.

that's wrong. It will name them by label and insert-order.

It's simpler than that anyway. Left slot = left LED, right slot = right LED.

Silkscreening
- don't care about it here

I, for one, am happy about the no-silkscreening decision.

That si such a WONDERFUL news.
Thanks OP-Team!

You know, I forgot to add a party-related image. Well, here you go - for all you partying chaps, a cheesy animation of Dr. Wily dancing (after a fashion).

After looking at gruso's link. The silkscreening doesn't look the best anyhow. I'd rather a stealth edition pandora!

But I WOULD like 'first batch' insignia somewhere! Something to identify us.

Wait, that's what it was going to look like? That's CRAP. Why would the SDHC slots be numbered? Who wrote that dumb "first batch" text? Why would you write "USB" on it? The text "USB" always looks terrible. Don't put it anywhere. If you have trademark authorization, use the USB trident logo (which would have looked good), but if you don't, it's better to just leave it blank. Everyone will know what it is by the unique shape of the USB connector. But, actually writing "USB" on it looks ugly.

Put that silkscreen on the second batch. It will be their ugly mark of shame for not having had faith during the first batch. (Am I overzealous?)

Thanks for rocking up at the eleventh hour and dissing the hard work of others. It's always appreciated.

he's absolutely correct though. I, for one, am glad my unit won't have the silkscreening.

Fair enough, but at least your trolling has some credibility.

Until this point I had no idea that the pandora had an onboard mic.

This truly is a thread for rejoicing.

 

[gruso]

Well, that pic is making everyone's day innit.

(To be fair, their intention was for it to look much better than that.)

I’ve just got an idea: why not make the keymat all black too and call the device “Das Pandora”?

Yeah, this will be cool – like Hotblack Desiato’s spaceship!

(from blog)
Yeah!
This is what I want!
In the name of that, I made some pretty 3d animation, black on black, named "Black Celebration":

 

[juniorm33]

Some people wanted the silkscreening, some people didn't.
Some people didn't care eitherway, some people only wanted it, if it meant no delays (which they said was the case)

That pic is of an old version of the silk screening or at best things misaligned, so it should look better than that. :lol:

I'm all for partying if it means no delays, as I don't care either way

 

[paddy]

I am glad there is no silkscreening on the first batch as it will be the
big way to tell that its a first batch pandora and it also looks like a dev unit
in the nicest possble way,ohh its that rare first batch pandora !

Also the reasoning for me to be not so bothered is that i don't really like
the silkscreening as it is and also that once the second batch is out ,we will
all be able to buy a shiny new Pandora case with silkscreening that may also
be more revised as there will have been time to get it right ,also i would
imagine there will be other Pandora cases you could buy later on like a nice
shiny smooth silver case with crome metal stylus and thats what im really on about.

Lets just get the Pandora out ,but i do hope its a very sturdy solid feeling
unit ,i hate that light thin plastic feeling type of case like the sony psp 2000
slim n lite ,slim n cheap and poor more like.

one last thing ,i really did want with the Pandora was for it to be
shiny and not matt but we all know in the future we will have more
options so chill .

Wouldn't a lack of silkscreening signify the first batch enough?

I really like the none silkscreening on the Pandora presented here, but I really like the idea to have "First Batch" too. Like the magic first edition .

 

[Jourdy288]

W00t! I don't think this decision will affect me (much) since I'll have to order from the second batch when I have enough cash on hand.
Now we'll see some stuff come out sooner!
Perhaps a certain (ATM paused) emulator?

 

[WizardStan]

If you're using a terminal emulator to access the SD cards you'll access them as /media/mmc1 and /media/mmc2 so the 1 and 2 would be slightly helpful for those that don't read/count left to right. Maybe.

that's wrong. It will name them by label and insert-order.

Are you certain?
The first MMC device is mmcblk0, with the first partition being mmcblk0p1 (second partition mmcblk0p2, etc...). The second MMC device is mmcblk1, and so on. That's how it is on my BeagleBoard, and from the videos we've seen of working with the terminal, that is exactly how it works on the Pandora as well.

 

[GizmoTheGreen]

i hope you can buy First batch cases, when seconds batch is ready.

ofcourse, theyll have to check so that only first batchers can order them, lol

edit, ofcourse i mean with the first batch sign

 

[borgqueenx]

i hear it already.

we need a
"Silkscreening, dance around it here" thread.
