What software are we still missing on Pandora? (A Wish List)

[ekianjo]

This is not a survey but I'd like to hear from the community what is still missing in terms of software for the Pandora (non-game software).


I have a few things I'd like to see, personally:


- Something like Skype for voice calls... (and AS easy to use).


- A fully featured twitter/Facebook client (like Gwibber or others...)


- Dropbox or dropbox equivalent...


How about you ? Anything else you'd like to do with your Pandora that you can't do presently ?

Pandora act as a Bluetooth HID Device => Keyboard,Mouse, Joystick

Something like Game Maker. It would be awesome to make and play your games on the OP.

This may be a little far fetched, how about trying a Saturn emulator, I'm itching to play Radiant Silvergun.


Or Sega NAOMI..but that's basically Dreamcast emulating....a man can dream

Saturn gets my vote too, altho Saturn emulation is difficult, so i am not sure if it will run good on the current hardware.


That console got a bunch of gems i never played, such as Albert odyssey, dragon force 1 and 2, langerisser IV, Shining Force III..

Game Editor has been ported, though I haven't tried it on the Pandora myself.

Edit: Wait, Golly is open-source, isn't it? I could try porting that

Nice calendaring / todo / contacts app that syncs with ownCloud or SOGo.

I would still like to see a dice roller, as i use my pandora extensively for tabletop games - just a small program like what found here http://www.wizards.com/dnd/dice/dice.htm .

I wrote one of these for the Gp2X, Wiz and webOS -

I can easily port this to the Pandora. Expect a .PND tomorrow

I mentioned "non-game" related

No so many viruses on Linux, though ?

I very much doubt you'll see any playable Saturn emulator anytime soon, but it's off-topics

Only one person interested by this or several ?

Well, that saves me some work, lol.


What about a "Talking EvilDragon" application? Or an "Angry Pandoras" game? Lol, parodies of the "popular" applications on the smart phones would be hilarious.
