I made a quick video showing a few things, but the case is held together with tape instead of screws. It's also a non-functional prototype because I just got the parts yesterday afternoon and I have to take it one step at a time. I will work on putting it all together with some functional tests soon.

Please remember that Pandora is not mean to compete with Nintendo and Sony for the handheld market. This device is designed to do what they don't want you to do with their systems. Pandora runs Linux and is open source so you can code absolutely anything you want without the fear that the next firmware update will lock you out! The hardware is also more powerful than the current generation of commercial handhelds available and so your canvas to freely work on is bigger and brighter! :)

See openpandora.org and openpandora.ca for more details.

  • im pretty sure their losing shitloads of money. pandoras are pretty frikken cheap considering what it does. think about it, a handful of people are doing something huge corporations haven't done. this is gonna be epic.

  • Personally, I love the chipset and processor architecture in this system. It's like a throwback to the 1980s, when computers had parts that were designed to work together, instead of being an unwieldy and murderously complex mishmash of cards and ribbon wires strewn about on a bare bones board with an ancient and archaic processor architecture that should have died 20 years ago.

  • too bad i cant buy it in Soviet Russia. But i can buy it in Internet!)

  • I can't belive how far the Pandora has come, now some people including me have one! Epic console is all I can say

  • @J47F: When it's ready. They probably could have rushed it and shipped a few months ago, but the cases would be falling apart now.

    They are now just waiting for the finishing touches on the case, then China can make all the cases and ship them to Britain for final assembly. Might still be a while, but there is not much left to go wrong.

  • IF they do, they deserve it

    If they don't, the world is unjust and I will be angry.

  • when will they release it?

  • You guys are gonna get FUCKING RICH ! And I'm really happy for you , honestly !

  • No, it's made of ABS and PC plastic. Well, the final ones will be.

  • Is it, made out of Fimo?
