Pandora Prototype Running Angstrom

As requested here is a little video showing the Pandora Angstrom build doing a few fun things.

It's not very optimised and there is no hardware acceleration yet but I think you will agree it runs rather well anyway - and don't forget this is on a device the size of a DS.

I know you guys probably won't get to this comment, but could you preview Blender 3D and see how well it runs on the OP?

There is no ghosting on this LCD, ghosting is a thing of the past these days.

Want one of these so goddamn badly.

This is awesome!

[mutilator111]

still awesome!

@nikhilesh93 - Since it's an ARM processor, it doesn't heat up much. There's a video somewhere of Craig using it on a pile of snow and he says it isn't even melting the snow. Most of the heat of using it will be transferred body heat.

@Agentdvd - They can't run Blender just yet because the Pandora uses OpenGL ES, a subset of standard OpenGL. So someone will have to do a little rewriting to make Blender use ES before it will run.

high speed dirt! \m/

[TechXMarine]

when you move something at a rapid speed across the screen you can see ghost of it

well where it was previously if you know what i mean

[nikhilesh93]

Does it heat up much?

BTW big up on the open-ness, that's the way it should be - Linux developers concentrate on Linux, Gimp developers concentrate on Gimp, XMMS on XMMS, and everything works everywhere. :-) Modularity FTW.

atleast you can firefox on a size of a ds

[CryptoDah2]

what is ghosting?

AC/DC + SLAYER + PANDORA = WIN
