So how many of you are interested in the
pandora?
Would you buy one?
Would you dev on it?
Personally I would do both. This is a kick ass console!
What do you think about this bit of tech?

Yeah! I definitely want one! I started a topic up in general gaming a while ago talking about this glorious hand-held. They sold out on their 1st batch within a matter of hours.
Their second batch is due sometime in 2009. I am getting it for my B-Day in April for sure.

That'd be nice man.
Hey, did you know that they even included Dreamcast on the list of games it can handle?
So I can play Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 (including the DC ver. of Elysian Shadows)

It can handle pretty much anything, game platforms as long as the emulator for it is matured enough.
I saw a vid
here got the pandora running a full GUI and loading firefox and stuff.
I would love me a pandora MK2

I have been waiting for it for "literally" a year now.
This beats the hell out of PSP and DS.
I am thinking about getting more into handhelds after seeing this marvel.
I know that the updated Pandoras are still in the making, but I wish they would demonstrate it's power with the handheld assembled and not gutted out.

essentially a DS and PSP are also...The Pandora just took a giant leap towards there.
It's kind of funny if you think about this...in years from now, tech in laptops now will probably be the tech in handhelds....that would be some crazy crap right there....a DS sized handheld with 4 GB memory, a 2.0 GHz CPU, etc...

We ain't there yet but the pandora is the most powerful handheld in the world in terms of graphics, processor, etc. I know the processor can run at 1.0GHz
