...but only in a dream I had last night :)

Okay, this is a little silly but my wife wouldn't be interested and neither would anyone at work...

Anyway, (in my dream) my Pandora arrived and it was truly awesome! The box it came in was a plain brown cardboard box (wasn't even taped up!). the device itself was just wrapped in packing material (yunno, that popping stuff). Annoyingly, I couldn't get anything working on it, except for a Megadrive emulator. It was just ace to hold the thing in my (dream) hands. It was exciting thinking about all the possibilities, moves, MAME, Amiga games, browser, music.

I also tried the game I've been working on (which couldn't happen as I haven't even tried compiling it for ARM yet..

I did wonder why I recieved it (in this infamous first 100) - has that been decided yet?

Sad really. So has anyone else been so excited that they've actually dreamt about getting their Pandora?

I had a dream of using Firefox on it browsing sites and having fun...Then I woke up. :(
This was before pre-orders so I'm especially depressed now. But it's not long now!
 
I had a dream about it back when I thought I'd get it in less than 2 months.

That was a long time ago, if I remember the dream correctly, I wasn't expecting it to show up for a couple weeks but I came home from work and there it was in the mail, later I somehow was talking in person (I live in the states) to ed about the functions and possibilities of my new toy... later it turned into a save-the-world-action-thriller-movie-type dream that my dreams usually degrade to at some point during the night...

heh, MonkeyChops, the normal everyday gadget geek thrust into a life or death struggle to save the world from the clutches of the Evil Dragon...lol, my dreams are crazy

I don't think I could be excited enough to have another dream about the pandora now unless I really believed delivery was eminent... although the mame video does spark some of those old feelings.
 
I've never had a dream about the Pandora- but I did dream the entire internet crashed, and when it rebooted, my website, Youtube, and two or three others worked!
 
I dreamt I accidentally downloaded the Pandora source code to my CPU, then jacked in to cyberspace to reprogram the Pandora File Archive in static HTML 4.0. Zany!

Some of you will end up going blind - with sticky patches on your pants - from constantly thinking about Pandora, porn ... hmm Porndora hey my pandy got a new name!!!

That post was wrong. Just wrong. But for two reasons.

1. It was just wrong.

2. The myth that umm... that can make you go blind is a decades old myth made up by parents, back when umm... that, was absolutely taboo in society. Umm... that has no health problems attached and is even good for your health. 'nuff said.



Off that slightly disturbing topic, I dream every single night, and though I usually forget most of my dreams, I could swear I've dreamed about something like this at least once.

That was brilliant!
 
i had a dream about the pandora last night. craigix said he had 400 ready and we could go and get them from his house if we wanted. so 4 days of walking to the south of france (?) later i arrived at his posh mansion, complete with roof terrace and veranda. there were loads of people lazing about on the decking on the roof playing with their newly collected pandoras in the sun. i spoke to craig but he said he had already posted mine.

so i went somewhere(?) and got it. the box was massive, and inside along with my pandora were a load of homegrown vegetables from craigix garden. leeks, garlic, ginger, jars of pickles and spring onions all neatly tied together and seperated with bubble wrap. what a nice thought, i mused. i opened the smaller box containing my "pandora" but it was just a nokia n900 with a postage stamp sized monochrome screen on the front lol. i was a bit disappointed :D

Heh, nice dream.
But aren't there any more recent dream topics around to post it in? This one is a bit old.
