I'd love to hear from anyone who has got one. I know that there was a lot of talk of porting a variety of music applications to Pandora, but I haven't followed up on where any of that got to.
a couple of people here have them on preorder, one has actually arrived!
its a nice bit of kit considering its origins. Theres a few build issues - the one I saw had shoulder buttons that felt vastly different on each side. The linux distro feels a bit sterile too, its not polished in that respect. But from the brief glimpse I saw, it has great potential. Never massmarked though, only ever a niche thing in the same fashion as the gp32/gp2x. The only thing that worries me from a porting POV is the ARM chip making it a bit harder than a straight x86 recompile.
Still waiting for mine. Not expecting for two months!
ReplyDeleteI'll let you know when it lands
Did hell freeze over? Did pigs fly? ..... Pandora shipping!? I can't believe my eyes :)
