Thinking About Buying One...

[XtrackterX]

Well, my birthday is pretty far from now but I've already made plans.
Can I get on Youtube? Or Code PHP?

And there was a game that I can't remember that was going to be ported for this, it was made for DS I believe, can anyone help me remember the name?

- Thanks

Once we port the Adobes Flash Player 10.1 for ARM devices to the Pandora, we will be able to watch YouTube flawlessly (for now, I guess you can watch it, but with some occasional problem with the FPS)

About coding, yes. It seems you can code in any language, since you're running Linux on it =] I am specially interested on the Ubuntu port for Pandora that I saw on YouTube. With it, everyone could program stuff on their favorite languages! =]


EDIT: About the DS Game, if you could describe something about it, I think I can help you... But if you can't give more details, it could to be hard to find a game among the 5000+ games from DS library...

Youtube is very likey (vid plugin or flash), php is opensource so yes. You last question is extremely vague.

bob's game is the only one I know of. I don't think there were any official ports announced, but popular homebrew games might make it over. I don't own a DS, though, so I'm not familiar with any of those.

I now about some DS homebrew games.

YES Thanks Bob's Game.
Yeah the Pandora sounds awesome.
Sorry I know it probably says this somewhere, but how much is it? And also can I buy one right now, or do I have to wait?

It should be about $330 or so (not including shipping, of course). As far as buying one now, it's still technically a pre-order, so you'd still be waiting one way or another. There's more information about ordering on this page from the official website.

Yes, Bob says on his website that he intends to make a Pandora port.

Yes, Bob says on his website that he intends to make a Pandora port.

which will be good, since his game is taking about as long to come out as the Pandora

I never said anything about Bob intending to make a game... Just that if he does, he also 'intends' to port it to the Pandora.

It must not rely too heavily on the second screen of the DS then. I thought he had essentially finished it though, and just couldn't get the DS SDK to make it official.
