Spare parts (2010-10-21)


The AV cables are in the pipeline. All people who ordered them will get them, and I'm guessing they'll have spares for sale too. Right now they need to focus on getting batch 1 built, then they will lock horns with the company making the cables and get them made.
 
as soon as spare nubs arrive, I will take a handful of those, a couple LCD cables, one case, and a keymat (maybe 2)
 
Nice to know.


Also, while almost all of the the prices are listed as USD/GBP/EUR, the listing for the replacement stylus is GBP/USD/EUR, which is potentially confusing.
 
I was expecting a little more markup on the spare part prices. These are pretty reasonable.


What should we expect for turnaround time? For instance, if I order a LCD cable today, when would it likely end up in my mailbox (or if USPS is delivering, crushed between door and screen door)?


Also, I know there's a special tool for coiling and/or inserting the LCD cable. Is this something we can recreate at home if it's well described and/or photographed?


Finally, I know you were pretty insistent that the the hinge had to be replaced with the LCD cable. Does the hinge just refer to metal pin and plastic that fits into it (It's been a while since I looked at it, so I may be misremembering here)?


ED already replaced my LCD cable, and my Pandora is on its way back to me, but on the (hopefully) unlikely chance that it happens again, I'd like to be prepared.
 
Are these the new more robust LCD cables? I wouldn't mind a case for some hacking/experimenting with tolerances etc. I assume the new better nubs will be for sale too?

This appears to ship as part of batch 2, according to the order page:

Welcome to the private Pandora pre-order page. Please don't post this link on forums. This is a preorder. This batch is expected to start shipping in November.

Hey, right on. Been waiting for this to come about. Ordered me a set of Pandora case parts.


Question: do these come with the screws to put it together?

Yes I'll include them.


I might make a little guide to using the new shoulder buttons if people are going to swap them.

Dammit, don't say anything about the damn date! Bah!


Anyway, good setup, this will provide useful for those who like voiding their warranties ;) (no stabs at anyone here intended!)
 
is it me or are some things like the full case damn cheap and some other things like the stylus quite expensive?
