What Kind Of Metal Parts Does The Case Contain?

[Vitel]

Case will be a bit smaller the GP2X, and will be a mix of metal and plastic.

 

[Bosbeetle]

Some black metal, a bit of hair metal, a smudge of progressive metal and a whole lot of death metal. Stabilized with some math metal.

 

[Vitel]

That's a good one.

Now that the joke is out of the way, the only parts I recall being made of metal are the hinge tube and the crews.

I think there was a time when there was going to be metal disks under/around the analog nubs, but for some reason that's been scrapped.

I thought it looked really awesome though, reflecting the light off the screen, making it look like a pair of eyes changing colour

The case is all plastic now.

The metal of the old nubs can't be considered a case part though, as it was part of the nubs themselves. It's interpretable though and might be what was meant.

 

[Mithrildor]

Well the screws are metal.

No one can destroy the metal.

The metal will strike you down with a vicious blow.

I believe he's asking about the carry case doods.

The GP2X case a shiny metal logo on it. Maybe the Pandora case will have similar metal trimmings.

:blink:
Damn, you seem to be right. A proper quote would have helped in the first place.

edit:
Seems like the non-carry case is meant

Hey,

I plan to get either a Pandora or Wiz with the money I will get after I manage to sell my PSP and DS, bt I can't decide which one. I looked up on wikipedia and the pandora wiki and this is that I found out:

In the wiki, it's still specified that the pandora will be released during summer 2008...
Like in "It's not been updated for years!".

So yeah, since a few things have changed, like the case that is completely made of black plastic

We are the vanquished foes of the Metal
