    Release NetHack (native port)

    Hack is such a hard game - but when I got my Pandora I immediately got a copy of Powder and that is also pretty hard but also pretty similar. I seem to remember that Hack has more variation to it, is that right? oh and Powder has graphical tiles.

    WiFi, tests and CircuitCo (2011-06-17)

    I feel very lucky that I decided to upgrade to Premium back in May and now have had my Pandora for over a month - it still feels like I'm in a dream when I use it. And although I was never really interested in the 1-year Warranty, after reading the past posts by the team, I have been wondering...

    New cables, more boards (2011-04-15)

    What happened here? During January of this year, 1000 boards were shipped from CC to Craig weren't they? That was taking the total number of units created up to 1900 (with the 900 from May of last year), and Craig had just implemented the Premium Pandora to get things moving even more quickly...

    Quick summary of the last week (2011 - 02 - 01)

    Does anyone else find it really strange that people cancel their order when others queue jump? To me, it's like saving up for a holiday in another part of the world that you really want to see in your lifetime. You get the money all together and book your flight long in advance and get...

    "Pandora consoles banned from ebay"

    The listing on ebay also doesn't say what's wrong with them - the joysticks are broken or from the weaker group of nubs, right? I want one so bad but cant really justify purchasing this when I'll be (hopefully) getting one in about 3-4 months from the second batch. I guess I can wait a bit...

    No reason to bash (2010-12-15)

    I've noticed that usually ED and even other members of the team like to hang out at these forums and post and now they're gone... I wonder if that's because they hate the monster they created and are now just praying if they ignore it enough it will go away.

    The Truth is out there (2010-12-11)

    Awesome News! Just like ED said, it was perfectly reasonable for the board company to do what they did. Why lie? Maybe they saw a group of guys who were working so hard on a project and kept getting knocked down from all the problems and didn't want to have to add onto their problems by saying...

    Coming closer (2010-10-25)

    Um, From what I've been reading on these boards, it sounds to me like the team has stopped production to make sure the nubs will last for the length of the 1-year warranty that they have to provide. But surely the Pandora is being built to last a lot longer than that so even if we get them...

    64Gb Sdxc Cards

    In Australia, the price of a 32GB SDHC card is roughly the same as a 750GB Passport HD - around $120. It looks like from the comments above that the USB2.0 port is faster than the card readers. I'd figure that the cards are much more portable and not as breakable (if you're out exercising, etc.)...

    Rhinestone Hinge Stop

    You can get simple lock mechanisms from hardware stores like this - but I couldn't find a diagram so I did one in paint. So were they not allowed to put one in without a patent or something? Seems like they have a lot of choices open to them (downside with this simple one is that if you try to...
