    I Hate To Ask, But...

    Did I say I didn't know that? Yes I know the Pandora is currently $500 / £380. I don't have quite that much (ordering will return to normal after batch 1 is completed?) and I'd rather not jump in front of somebody who's been waiting ~2.5 years patiently. 2000-3000? Thanks. That ED post sure is...

    I Hate To Ask, But...

    I can't seem to find this information anywhere. Production Progress hasn't been updated since 2010. To be blunt: How many total units have been shipped to customers (out of the 3900 ordered), and when do we think Batch 1 will have finished? (and the current production rate would be handy). From...

    Has My Gp2X Just Died?

    Maybe he wasn't used to the way the GP2X powers off abruptly with the familiar "zzzbzbzz" noise in the headphones (if you know what I mean?) and the weirdness that happens to the image onscreen when the batteries run out of energy. Sorry to say this, but I'm pretty sure there's a defect in DC...

    Pandora...or A Dedicated Umpc?

    From what you've said I reckon a Pandora will be better for your needs. You can use the following flowchart: When do you need it? Within the next few days/weeks/monthUMPC or alternative deviceIn approximately November/December 2010 or laterBatch 2 Pandora

    Wtf? Ok Who Listed This One....

    Nah. Not pissed at all. We're just feeling sorry for people you know that want one that'll be waiting 3+ months. Or they can pay £1000+ to get one now :lol: I really hope they'll fix the batch ordering problem at some point in the near future. The gp2x and Wiz were never an issue to get hold of.

    Talks From A Assembly Company.

    Grr, I'm tired with hearing this mentality. Many of us weren't happy with our money in the project for so long. "The first batch is soon, we're so close now" is a null argument, it has been for a year. Please don't remind us money-back-going-to-order-later people how far away or expensive the...

    Pandora Wi-Fi On 350kilobytes/s

    Copy some files over WiFi with no other bottlenecks and see what happens. If you have several gigabytes of anime or other large files, each GB will take 2995 seconds (50 minutes) at that speed.

    Good point. What broke the WiFi?

    The Cyclist Thread

    So, any other cyclists out there on gp32x? Any speed / stamina / distance etc records people would like to share? :D

    Cancelling Order

    I got mine back within about a week. Well done with this choice you've made.

    The Second Batch Info Thread

    Craig probably needs to adjust for years of inflation in there from the initial price... Okay, so we're looking at about £250~260 for a less overclockable device? Bah, I supported the project for 15 months. Oh well, as is life. Not really anyone's fault.

    Batteries! [Nimh]

    Ah sorry, I had a load of tabs open in firefox and thought this was the gp2x board. Feel free to move/delete.

    Batteries! [Nimh]

    Any recommendations / warnings about various brands of batteries or chargers (or combinations of charger/battery brands)? I need a new set of both. How about 1 or 2 hour chargers? I've also seen some 3000 mAh cells around such as these (yes, 3 Ah), would these be genuine, or only produce that...

    Refund Experience?

    Got my money back in December '09. I wasn't going to sit through my 16, 17th and soon to be 18th birthdays waiting for a device to materialise, especially since I lost a bet to a friend since the Pandora didn't ship by August <_< . What would you have thought in February 2009? Got a touchbook...

    Smartq V7 Vs Pandora

    We could complain about Pandora's 100% fault rate so far. I joke ^.^'. Is there anything comparable as a non-gaming device? (keyboard, long-ish battery life, better price by a little since we are getting less, gpu not required) I suppose not much with a big dev community around it.

    Eds Status On The Pandora Os - Disheartening

    I/We present awesome handheld with promised features to friends who have been laughing at me/us quietly for the past 2 years for waiting so damn longSaid handheld is using a stupid hacked on solution for promised functionality, despite OpenPandora and devs having had over a year to get it...

    Eds Status On The Pandora Os - Disheartening

    I agree completely with the original poster. WiFi is crucial functionality. I appreciate the nature of this project, but £230 is very considerable. There is little point in the Pandora if you're going to say "the potential (hardware) is there, we'll get to it (the software to use it)". Imagine...

    Guitarsonfire

    I'm an interested dev and could help a fair bit I imagine (C++, done a bit of work with SDL, and playing with VB, Java, JavaScript, nothing really serious to be honest), I don't have a testing unit though. My Pandora is coming from the second batch, so that'll probably take a while to get here...

    How Long Is Reasonably Long?

    Consider my signature. Nobody really has or had much idea when it comes out. We could say "a couple of months for sure" at this moment, but what about 2 months ago? 4 months? 6? The general concensus has always been "Soon, it can't take them much longer". I backed out in December. When I bought...
