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

[quadcricket]

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

Only one person interested by this or several ?

If I could get a Calendaring / todo app I could replace my Palm V's Datebk6 application. That would be cool.


I'm very interested in it.

BBC B/Electron emulator, but not for games, oh no, it's for erm... (cough) educational purposes. Hey that excuse worked when I 14 .

Couldn't you use that program on a palm pilot emulator? I know that many open-source ones exist.

Have a look at the portrequest page in the wiki

Hmmm... I'll have to follow those instructions and have another do at a linux compile, last time I tried that though it killed the OS install on my SD card . Ginge is Ok but what's the point of a Pandora BBC emulator without the keyboard ?

The problem with emulators is that they don't interact with the system hardware. So if you need an alarm to wake you up there's no way for the emulator to bring your machine out of sleep mode. This is sort of important for a calendaring program.

You know, I couldn't find any decent cross platform calendar software with sync (I'm after Windows, Android, and Pandora ), so I've been looking at building my own complete system, but I'll have a look through these see what I can find and/or build

This may be a little far fetched, how about trying a Saturn emulator

Yabause was ported a long time ago:

Don't get too excited though, maybe another generation or two of Pandora before it's more than a tantalising curiosity!

iprice: AWESOME!

I'd like to see a program that will put everything except the USB port into sleep mode, so that I can charge my cell phone while using as little other battery as possible.

 

[carport888]

Oh, and a slideshow program! Please, please, PLEASE make a decent, lightweight image slideshow program!


EDIT: I know Android can do it, but I'd rather not have to switch to Android or launch a big program like XBMC every time I want to show a slideshow.

gpe-calendar worked quite good for me, but as it comes from angstrom-repo all its app-data gets lost when updating the Pandora-firmware.


Not that handy in case of an Calendar-app with lots of sync-settings.


Apart from that I would like to see a tuner or pitch-detector (guitar/voice/whatever) using the internal mic or line in.


I don`t like to start android each time for that

I didn't realize you could charge something with this thing I guess you learn something new everyday ^^

Oh yes it's saved me from becoming completely communication-less on at least two trips over to Chile. Just plug your phone using USB and BOOM... it starts sucking juice from your Pandora.

It's almost there.. Sswarm made some advances... Really, just to fix a few things like maybe save states and key mapping..


It'll be good to go then

Ooh, another thing I'd like to see on Pandora is fullscreen music visualization software. That would be nice to use also with TV-Out.

 

[carport888]

Sorry for so many posts...I keep thinking of things! I would very much like a way to map the "Pandora Button" to an external keyboard and/or gamepad so that I can easily bring up the menu at the press of a button without having to deal with a mouse, even if my Pandora is plugged into the TV out of arm's reach.

Perfect iCP intergration

+1

This would make sense and would be a good selling point and feature to have.Imo

No sync function, probably, though...

Excellent, looking forward to that.
