    How's it going? (2012-03-05)

    Last four posters: Did any of you upgrade, or are you all just regular orders? If the latter is true, then it looks like my order may be a mere Two Months away, as my preorder was that February! :)

    Nintendo ds emulator

    Er. The resolution of both DS screens added up is 256x384. You could fit three pairs of DS screens side by side and still have a sixteen pixel border between each screen and a convenient 96 pixel area above or below the screens to put in ... I dunno, annoying ad banners or something...

    Stereoscopic (S-3D) Support thread

    You know, you're not required to buy food when you see a movie. It's a theater, not a restaurant.

    Stereoscopic (S-3D) Support thread

    Waitwaitwait .... what kind of world do we live in where Sony isn't interested in 3D? This is like Nintendo posting "Adding accelerometer support to the Pandora is just lame, man!"

    TCP/IP over bluetooth

    http://triptico.com/docs/bluetooth.html That seems to fit your bill. I am highly amused that the daemon that handles this functionality is called "pand".

    Noob Questions 101 LOL

    Simple answer: Hard links are only for files. Long answer: The actual location of a file is determined by a number called an inode. All file entries in directories are just references to that inode. When you do a hard link, it just adds another directory entry pointing to that inode. If...

    Windows Manager Via Pandora?

    Do you mean something like vnc? That's been doable since at least the Palm III a decade plus ago, and it works on most devices. Like here, I mean: https://www.youtube.com/embed/9xNfZBUC89Q?feature=oembed I was playing Civ on a 160x160 resolution PDA this way last millennium over a cellular...

    Can a Pandora replace MY smartphone+gaming handheld?

    Its native resolution is 800x480, and the TV out is SD-only, so no matter the resolution of the video, that's the upper limit what it will be displayed at. As for the actual files themselves, I'd guess that bitrate and codec type play more of a role in whether it's smooth or choppy. I imagine...

    Which Came First..?

    My "chicken or egg" situation last year was "Pandora or House?". I started home hunting in mid-'09, just three or four months after ordering, and that dragged pretty amazingly as well. I only just moved in two months ago, so my question was answered. (now it's "Pandora or Burning Man?") 3DS...

    will this be the right month? ^_^

    Excellent. My order was confirmed on the 26th of February 2009. If my situation is consistent with your situation, I should be getting mine in late January '11. ...oh wait. :o

    More importantly, when did you place your order?

    How Do I Give My Usb Stick/mem Card Its Own Icon?

    No, no, the syntax error is part of normal operation. >_>

    How Do I Give My Usb Stick/mem Card Its Own Icon?

    Isn't this sort of easily scriptable? The below instructions expect that you know how to automate a program (like with cron) to make it run periodically. If I get a chance to think harder (and if I get a Pandora so I can actually play around), I can probably just make an easily installable...

    Simple Questions

    Aw, crap, only ten a day? At that rate, I won't get mine for years! :o

    games made in c++ to pandora?

    Most applications on the Pandora are probably written in C or C++, so that alone is not a problem. Also in the game's favour is that it runs (according to screen shots) at a resolution that the Pandora can handle. There are three things working against it: 1. The game is programmed in...
