    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    Finally. Now, what's the software situation?

    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    I'd like more data, but I understand it is no use at all for predicting the future deliveries. I'm about 12 hours past the last update, so I'm guessing two months is about right... The next update probably will leave my estimate unchanged...

    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    I just noticed (after 9 months) that this thread was pinned, and there are actually other updates to read...

    Just a quick heads up

    Is everyone in the same group as regards shipping/orders? Except for a handful of developers/reviewers maybe? I have absolutely no idea any more - just that I am on a list.

    Planet Computers : Gemini - Psion Returns

    This looks like validation of the Pyra (to some extent), and has a slightly different niche. Will be interesting to see if it takes off as a phone+keyboard alternative. Presumably it has serious backing, otherwise the whole thing looks rather speculative to me.

    A few Colors and Packages (with a poll!)

    Presentation wise, the big box is better. Overall, the smaller box feels right because it better reflects the form-factor. Imagine seeing them in a store, you wouldn't want people to confuse it with a tablet device. It might look better with the battery section reversed - even if that needs a...

    Retrocomputing site on StackExchamge

    I guess this may be of interest to a few people here, either as a source of information, or as somewhere to share your knowledge. http://retrocomputing.stackexchange.com/ is in beta, aimed at vintage-computer hobbyists interested in restoring, preserving, and using the classic computer and...

    Preorders Have Started. (Previously named starts in two hours)

    I finally managed to parse the updated thread title... 'priorly' should be 'previously' if it is going to make any sense at all.

    Finalizing everything!

    Well, chroot Ubuntu on my Chromebook just works, so I guess there has been a fair amount of porting work going on for some time now. (To be fair, I don't stress the Chromebook, but it's a good reference)

    Preorders Have Started. (Previously named starts in two hours)

    My order seems to have gone through fine (€400 + €200 voucher), but the store told me it looked like there was a problem with what I ordered. I'm assuming its all ok...

    ... we're still alive!

    I'm more than happy with 32 GB based on the prices. I still have a nagging doubt about speed (and having plenty of unused space might be a benefit). My TF201 tablet started out with the slowest eMMC on the planet, and is surely now far slower than it was when I bought it - but it looks like...

    A date with the Pyra

    Some sort of ChromeOS/Android convergence is likely (maybe some more clues with the upcoming Pixel C, maybe later).

    Reflect the LEDs!

    Well, you really need to be concerned if it is resistive - by the same argument as reflecting the LED light, power is only dissipated by resistance. I agree it is unlikely to have an impact across the PCB, but this might be relevant in other situations and seems everyone gets RF wrong at...

    Get ready to rumble!

    I'm going to wait a while, let anyone else who is keen to get on have a chance to get in the queue, but I'll take up to 3 slots if there are any left by the end of the week...

    Verified Reviews or not...?

    I do sometimes use review sites (positive and negative feedback), but dislike the direct mail option. If I received one from ED, I might fill it in but it would cost a degree of goodwill. Finding a different route to get legitimate reviews on independant sites would be preferable.
