Am I the only one who knows about redspot games' offical announcement that they will offically produce commercial games for the pandora, this coupled with the new gp2x wiz promise to release new games every month means we have a good ol' fashioned console war on our hands which can drive new game and software development. Also $330-400 is a good price for the pandora because it is a full umpc by defintion (better than most IMO) and other umpc's cost around 2 or 3 thousand dollars, Pandora does way more than just emulate older systems, it can also do work like open office and fire fox 3 as well as being one of the only hand helds that you can feasibly develop software on as well as stuff like website development, and not to metion all the media functions. Plus lets not for get the usb host port which means you can add any usb accessory, no other hand held can do that, the site says this is not made to compeate with the likes of the psp or the ds but rather it is desighned to be the ultimate hand held device, which they have indeed accomplished. and as far as running windows is conserned, why would you need to, the eee pc has shown that windows is no longer nessacery, newer linux distros are very user freindly, you just have to be willing to learn something new. With linux the only real reason we still need windows is mainly for games not bussiness/office applications, and with this linux console war starting up this could very well ignite development of more linux games ultimately making windows obsolete.
