    Getting Up And Running Developing For The Pandora

    Since this is for an IR receiver, the problem becomes setting an interrupt for the GPIO line or else I recon you would have to continously have to poll the line, which isn't very efficient. I've been digging around the pandora depository and the documentation for the OMAP IC looking into the...

    Pandora Should Move To Android

    Haven't read the entire thread, btw. I think a complete move over to an Android OS would be a mistake and that this discussion is a little premature. Getting various SDK and guides for the system, etc, up and running first is more important. The only reason I've ever bought a gaming...
