    Action button labels, again

    (^)   (⁛)     (∴) (:) (✗)   (•) Hey, my account still works! (I don't really have a dog in this race. As much as I love my Pandora, I never really got all that much use out of it, so I can't justify getting a Pyra. But I still check in once in a while to see how it's developing...)

    Port Requests

    Heroes (http://heroes.sourceforge.net), an old light-cycle style game, would probably play nicely on the Pandora. The codebase is pretty ancient (ported from DOS, hasn't been touched since 2002), but it's GPL and Linux is the primary target.

    Where can I find screen protectors ?

    Well I personally love the EXiMs. I've got one on my phone, my wife's phone, my tablet PC and my Pandora (all hand-cut from my first spare!), and they're all working great. They're also cheaper ($10 USD for 2). Or I guess if you're feeling adventurous, you could spend $20, get laptop-sized...

    MyPaint picture gallery

    Drew this on the train on the way home yesterday, and coloured it when I got home. All done on the Pandora. (Some minor colour correction, cropping & scaling was done on the PC before uploading, but that's it) It's my interpretation of a Minecraft creeper. (Minecraft Reddit post) I use...

    Where can I find screen protectors ?

    I can highly recommend EXiM screen protectors. They use a dry, non-adhesive film that you can actually lift & reapply several times (as you may well need to do if you screw up the first application or pick up any dust). You also get a pack of 2 when you order. I ordered some for my laptop...

    Easiest 3D engine to use

    I'd like to see Panda3D on the Pandora. It has already been ported to BeagleBoard, so I imagine it could be made to work fairly easily. I'm not sure if a port would get you access to all the games already written... but as it's cross-platform, and some games run in a browser plugin, maybe we'd...

    marvel digital comics

    I was going to say if it's Flash based, then you're out of luck. But I tried a sample comic in Firefox 4 B10 anyway, and I'll be damned, the bloody thing loaded! ...Really slowly. It seems to work, to some degree, but I don't think I'd call it useable at this stage. Oh, and Firefox just...

    Frustrating Moments in Gaming

    (subtitle changed by request) With people now replaying old classics on the Pandora, we're bound to start encountering all the worst design elements from video game history. Here's a thread where you can vent your frustrations. May future games learn from the mistakes of the past! I'll...

    Post picks and first impressions of your shiny new Pandora here!

    I've had mine for a few days, but I haven't really had a lot of time to spend with it yet. But, this is a first impressions thread, so that's what I'll give. Hardware: It's a thing of beauty. I can't fault the construction on mine, everything fits perfectly and everything works as expected...

    Your pandora has been shipped

    Received: Wed 3 Mar 2011 WOOHOO 20 days rather than the 2-12 estimated, but that's Royal Mail's issue, not OP's. Currently charging on my desk. I'll post my impressions in the review thread at a later stage. CO-worker had a hold of it for a minute, and managed to snap off the left nub...

    Your pandora has been shipped

    I'm in Adelaide (+9:30), but email source includes timezones: Order confirmation: Tue, 30 Sep 2008 22:23:15 +0100 (BST) Shipped: Mon, 14 Feb 2011 14:50:38 +0100 (CET) I'm pretty sure I'm a day-1er, but I suspect about 2/3 of all first batch orders are day 1 :) I'll post this info in...

    Your pandora has been shipped

    Got my shipping notification on Tuesday 15th. (woohoo!) Honest to goodness day-1 preorder, not a premium. Now begins the next wait. I've managed 2 1/2 years, I'm sure I'll survive the next week or two. :)

    Ways to encrypt an SD card?

    Cool, thanks guys. When my Pandora finally arrives, I'll try it out and post the results.

    It happens only once in a lifetime.

    Fewer trolls. Less trolling. That is all.
