Hello everyone,
Sorry for this late post, I've promised to give the iCP2 KS 110% so the following events took place at exactly the wrong time.
Anyhow, to summarise the situation (this is relating to OP UK):
A couple of months ago Ed agreed that we should move to 1Ghz production and most of my outstanding preorders could all be 1ghz boards, this lead to a simple and perfect equation, 1 for 1. Ie sell one 1Ghz unit and we can ship 1 old preorder and 1 new 1Ghz unit.
This was actually working really well, we managed to clear some debts and ship about 100 units quickly, but then we had some large preorders cancelled unexpectedly. The people who cancelled these were not being nasty or awkward, they just needed the money back and I can understand this in the current climate. It amounted to ~100 units.
They had to be refunded, and it had to happen at just the wrong time.
Fortunately we are able to claim back quite a lot of tax on those refunds, about $15,000-$20k.
That will recover the situation somewhat, but we have to be very careful, it's unfortunate this has happened when we're so close to clearing the preorders, but nothing is ever easy is it?
The tax refund won't be with us until next month. Until that time orders will continue to ship but slowly as we very very carefully recover, we have a lot of 600Mhz units to sell, which I'll put up at the 'classic' price to keep things going, paying the bills etc.
At the same time Eds sales have been slower than expected, so no free units are currently available.
I hope you can help us though this, we are frustratingly close to clearing the old original orders (we need to sell about 400 more units to do it).
Don't worry - there is a plan to solve all this which I and Ed are nailing out, I'd wanted to wait until it was a clear and detailed plan but a lot of you are wanting information now, and while the above might be worrying, please don't go off on crazy tangents until the solution is detailed.
We're pretty good at solving these things now, we are fixing it.
Thanks,
Craig

The Pandora was billed to be the PSP Killer and to be honest it is an awesome console, the console looks like a DS but with larger screen and with a keyboard and was extremely powerful.
The only downer was the continous problems they endured, theres been a mass of software released for it but ultimately hasnt lived up to what was expected
Saying that we have a site with all the news on here --> http://pandora.dcemu.co.uk/ (shares the news feed with gp2x, dingoo, wiz and caanoo)
Sadly never got my hands on one despite posting the news to all the worlds major sites which helped get the preorders they needed. So apart from reading others viewpoints ive never been able to be truely amazed by what i posted at one time has the PSP Killer.
Anyone got one? please post a review for us.

Hiya and sorry again for the long overdue newspost.
As you probably know, I came back from the GamesCom last Sunday and haven't had a day off since sometimes before the GamesCom... and it seems I catched a light flu, so I'm a bit exhausted.
Nevertheless, things are moving and that's why I'm posting here 
1. 1GHz units
I should've gotten the remaining 1GHz units this week - however, some bad incidence happened.
One of the machine operators working at Global Components had to go to the hospital Tuesday evening, as he was spitting blood... seems like some stomach bleedings.
The hospital is currently analyzing what it caused. Thank god it doesn't seem to be something major, as he's home already to relax a bit (they didn't keep him at the hospital).
As it's holiday season, the other two are on holidays right now... one of them far away. The other one helped out for a few hours, but most of the time, the machine stood still.
It looks like they're going full steam ahead again from Monday on, so we should hopefully see these units next week and be able to sell them from stock soon after.
All the best wishes to the Operator. GC has a really awesome team and I personally hope it's nothing serious.
They'll be coming for sure, as all issues have been resolved and they can now produce the 1GHz Pandoras without any issues.
2. Classic Units
Askarus has been here for the full week and has been testing classic (CC) PCBs, sorting them out.
We're getting preassembled (silver) cases next week from GC and will then put the Pandoras in our shop.
A lot of them can be fixed and will be fully working, though some have minor issues like non-working WiFi or USB.
We'll probably sell the fully working ones (in brand new cases) for about 250 - 300 EUR, the ones with smaller issues for an even lower price (price will depend on what's broken).
I'll also put the Shirts online soon.
So I'll have different units to offer next week with different price ranges. Should be a good thing for everyone
3. Repairs.
Askarus will also be here next week and work on the repairs I got here, so if you are waiting for your Pandora to be repaired, it should happen next week as well.
Thanks a lot to Askarus for the help
4. TV Out Cables
Link was nice enough to send me his cable and I gave it to GC.
They are now checking how much it would cost to produce this. They'll probably solder them manually (which is a fast thing with the TinyBob), as any other company has a minimum order quantity of at least 5000 - and they all have a leadtime of 14 weeks... soldering them manually here at GC will be faster and we won't have to take huge quantities.
As you can see, a lot of things are happening - the only downside right now is the slight delay with the 1GHz units, but it's no technical issue but a health issue. And health certainly is more important than a few days lost in PCB production.

Its been a while since ive had the time to go through all the DCEmu sites and one by one, im going to give them a little makeover or add links etc.
Today ive given our Alternative Handheld Emulation a little sprucing up, AHE as it is known focuses on minor handhelds and has pages for the likes of Gizmodo, Openmoko, Tapwave Zodiac, JXD, Symbian, Early Android Releases, Pocket PC and J2ME.
From the consoles ive just read out youll have noticed that they are all pretty much extinct so we use the news feed from the Wiz, GP2x consoles that were all merged together last year.
Anyway check out AHE here --> http://ngage.dcemu.co.uk/

As you might know, we had a second run of PCBs using the DM3730, and we trashed another PCBs with different methods (so it's about 120 non-working PCBs alltogether... whew, that's some money).
However, GC did it again: One of the methods proved to be reliable - and has a failure rate of less than 5%.
Which means:
We can now both produce 1GHz and 600MHz units at production speed (means: 250 units per week!)
The only thing left now is to sell them - that's where you all can help. Share the word, show others your Pandora if you like it, etc.
We're having a big booth at the GamesCom next week which will surely also trigger quite a few more sales.
Every 1GHz order finances one old preorder, every three 600MHz orders finance one old preorder as well.
I'll send the next 40 1GHz units to Craig tomorrow as well as 22 600MHz units. I'll also ship 30 1GHz units to my customers tomorrow (need some left for the GamesCom, of course), and when I come back from the GamesCom, I should have a lot more units from GC lying at home which will then be sent to the remaining preorders.
So I guess in about two weeks we'll have both the 1GHz and 600MHz units available from stock - and then some more 256MB CC-units, when I find more time to fix the remaining PCBs. These will be the units for little money.
Thanks for your patience - and now it's time to take on the world

Just a quick news post to announce that 1.5.0 release builds are up for all the GPH devices (GP2X, Wiz and Caanoo) on the main ScummVM download page at http://www.scummvm.org/downloads/
The main GPH tweaks in this release are focused on the input code along with some minor clean up. Of course all the juicy improvements and newly supported games (device performance permitting) from the rest of ScummVM are also rolled in.
This release contains a minor issue with the downscaling code that can lead to minor graphics glitches in some of the larger games (Curse of Monkey Island and Broken Sword mainly) and I am working on getting this all fixed for a 1.5.1 release (I missed the 1.5.0 deadline to get an elegant fix done) but it is quite a minor problem.

Little Red Riding Hood looking over at her grandmother's latest install of ScummVM, noting the update to version 1.5.0 and asked "My what a lot of games you now support". "All the better to entertain you with my dear!" responded the curiously grinning relative.
We all love to feast on the most sumptuous of gaming titles and our latest release will fulfil your craving for even more classic point and click adventures.
Version 1.5.0 adds support for Once Upon A Time: Little Red Riding Hood and the following titles:
- Backyard Baseball 2003
- Blue Force
- Darby the Dragon
- Dreamweb
- Geisha
- Gregory and the Hot Air Balloon
- Magic Tales: Liam Finds a Story
- Sleeping Cub's Test of Courage
- Soltys
- The Princess and the Crab
As always, there are many more new features; you can find the full list in our release notes and the release itself on our downloads page.
Enjoy and hopefully you won't find the big bad wolf who is sure to give you a byte!
ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!
ScummVM supports many adventure games, including LucasArts SCUMM games (such as Monkey Island 1-3, Day of the Tentacle, Sam & Max, ...), many of Sierra's AGI and SCI games (such as King's Quest 1-6, Space Quest 1-5, ...), Discworld 1 and 2, Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2, Beneath A Steel Sky, Lure of the Temptress, Broken Sword 1 and 2, Flight of the Amazon Queen, Gobliiins 1-3, The Legend of Kyrandia 1-3, many of Humongous Entertainment's children's SCUMM games (including Freddi Fish and Putt Putt games) and many more.
For a list of changes since the previous version, read the release notes.
1.4.0 is also apt-get'able from Debian unstable (sid).

July 8th, 2012, 23:00 Posted By: wraggster
Some of you might've realized that I'm currently pretty busy... waiting for eMail replies from me, not much official news here, etc.
Well, I'm working on all of that. My shop will soon receive an update where RMAs and contact stuff is handled through a ticket system - which helps a lot, as my helpers can then also reply to questions and issues, so this should speed things up.
I've also improved the RMA system so I can check immediately what units I got here and what the status is. You'll also receive a mail when your unit arrives here.
Well, that's just some background information on what I'm working on right now... let's go to the news you've been waiting for:
The 1GHz Pandora Test run!
Global Components grabbed the DM3730 today, which means the test run will happen tomorrow.
In this first run, 80 PCBs will be populated using four different strategies (20 units each).
First, these PCBs will be tested for functionality. It might be that 15 out of 20 will not boot up with one strategy, that's why they're trying different ways to populate them.
Hopefully one of those strategies will lead to proper way of production (with a low failure rate), so we can continue with the remaining ones shortly after.
Some of these PCBs will also be x-rayed to make sure the production is as perfect as possible.
The DM3730 behaves a bit different than the OMAP. It's a bit lighter and bends a bit more easy.
That's why it's basically a completely new setup - not an easy task, but I'm sure GC can handle it fine.
Now you can imagine why the test run is that expensive: It might be that 50 out of those 80 PCBs won't work, so these are basically 50x180 EUR we can throw away... well, let's hope it won't come to that.
I can't speak for Craig (as I don't know the exact amount of 1GHz upgrades he got), but with the upgrades I got in my shop so far (without even ASKING my remaining old customers if they want to upgrade), I can fund 20 more units for classic preorders already. And as the upgraders are also classic preorders, they also are being removed from the queue.
So my upgrades alone help advancing the queue by 40 places
Pandora at the GamesCom
I mentioned it in a thread already, but I thought I could post it here as well.
The Pandora will have it's own area in the retro hall of the GamesCom in Cologne this year!
We'll have 14 units ready to be played lying around as well as some other stuff I sell (like Retrodes, Everdrives, etc.)
I'll have giveaways (probably T-Shirts, pens, etc.) and will be there the whole time in case you want to have some chat with me.
If someone here wants to volunteer to help me out running the booth (answering questions, take care nothing gets stolen, etc.), let me know. You can stay the full time for free.
You are very welcome to pay us a visit here. The GamesCom has about 200,000 visitors each year, so this will make the Pandora a bit more popular.
More information about the GamesCom can be found at the official website.
So much for my quick newspost - feel free to ask here if you have further questions.

Clearning up some code.
Changes: changeplayerproperty no longer returns value. The old function doesn't return properly on every property, so just remove it for the feature is a bit useless and doesn't show the exact problem. Should print proper error messages when necessary.
Fix: defense/offense related properties now store values in entity instead of its model.

June 10th, 2012, 02:38 Posted By: wraggster
As you may already know, a small test run of 150 1Ghz Pandora units is being produced in June/July.
What's new:
CPU is 1Ghz (overclockable)
GPU is now 200MHz instead of 110MHz
RAM is now 512MB instead of 256MB
Memory is clocked at 200MHz instead of 166MHz
CPU L1 cache increased from 16KB/16KB to 32KB/32K
Case is new stronger silver version
We already have samples and the 1Ghz version is about 66% faster than the 600Mhz version (this will be updated once further testing is done).
The 1Ghz unit can be overclocked and seems to overclock in a similar way to the 600Mhz version, so speeds of 1.2Ghz-1.4Ghz should be seen.
This run of 150 is expensive, which is reflected in the price. These simply exist because there is a demand for them, even at this price. We know it's expensive and not for everyone - but they will help OP.
These units use all the latest parts, nubs, LCD cable, RAM etc. The unit will be the most solid and best Pandora produced so far.
Email: openpandorasales@gmail.com with the topic '1Ghz Upgrade', then choose:
1)
Buying a whole new 1Ghz unit: $699 plus shipping - these are custom built and expensive. They have the silver case. They will be marked as 1Ghz special test run. I'm sure I and Ed can sign them.
2) (cheaper):
We swap your old unit for a new 1Ghz one.
What you have to do:
Pay $500 + shipping, Send back your unit, we will send you a new 1Ghz silver case unit.
We will keep your old PCB, we may use your LCD, keymat, buttons etc. on your upgraded unit if they are still in good shape.
^ this might be ideal if you have an old, tired Pandora.
------
If you *just* want a 1Ghz board:
Pay $500+shipping and send back your old PCB, we will send you the new PCB and you do the upgrade yourself. *recommended if you have a unit with the new LCD cable*. Replacing your PCB is a simple job.
------
If you have a preorder waiting to be shipped you can upgrade to the 1Ghz units by paying the difference.
Email: openpandorasales@gmail.com with the topic '1Ghz Upgrade' for questions.

We are currently developing a portable gaming system based on the Ingenic jZ4770 1GHz processor.
The hardware is in prototype stage and we are tweaking and adding things as the open source community tells us what they would like in this device.
The Open Source community has always wanted more so we have taken it upon ourselves to develop a console as close as we can to what the open source community wants.
We already have a core development team for the hardware and have started working with three developers for the actual OS development on the console which is in prototype phase also.
In the future we also plan on asking game and app developers to join the fold to further the development of the product into a full spectrum device.
The final goal is to have a gaming system with a Repository like Android app store where apps/games can be downloaded for free or purchased from developers on the repository. We are in development phase of this also with another group also called MyITKnowledge.com.
Below you will find specs of the device.

May 24th, 2012, 00:55 Posted By: wraggster
Whew, it has been a long time since I last made an official newspost.
The reason I didn't post was NOT that things are not going well - the reason simply was lack of time due to too much work...
I had a speed-holiday with my girlfriend (one day Europapark in Rust), and as I had my Pandora with me, I could make a newspost while it was her turn driving the car.
This is the first full newspost I made directly on the Pandora - the keyboard is really working well
So... let's see how everything is coming along, shall we?
1. The overall production
Overall, things are running pretty smooth and well.
Over 600 Pandoras have already been delivered (about 200 of those to long-time preorders) and we're currently getting a stable 100 per week units.
This is not yet full production speed. New test PCBs have been successful produced, so once the next batch of 1000 PCBs is finished, I'm planning to speed up to about 250 units per week.
The company COULD produce more per week - but we also have to sell and ship them, so 250 sounds like a good number to me.
To be honest, I'm pretty happy they didn't do more than 100 per week up until now - as I am flooded with work already and I don't plan to work myself to death...
I've got to catch up a lot of things right now. I got tons of emails left to reply, I had to work on the whole shop and order handling system as it was not suited for so many orders, I got some RMAs left (though MOST of them have been done already), etc.
Aditionally, all the pre-assembled units Askarus, Link and Linux_SWAT created have now been used up... so I'm currently also preassembling the next units.
About 250 left to go, from then on, Global Components will also do the full assembly.
So yeah, there's a lot of work still left for me to do, but I'm slowly catching up and should have most of the work done sometime in June.
Then I'm also prepared for a fullspeed production.
2. Parts and Cases
As usual, the stuff from China is late.
The new cases should've been finished mid-March, but as usual, they took a while longer.
Good thing I ordered them early... Fatih told me that they are already on the way.
So within the next few days, we'll get 5000 more cases. That should be enough
The new cases will also have a new color. It will be a dark silver, looking a bit like aluminium.
The new paint is way more scratch resistant and looks a lot better.
As soon as I got it, I'll take some pictures.
We still got some black cases left, so you will be able to decide what color you want.
We had some issues with the LCD-Cable company, but Fatih did a good job and we already got the next batch of cables now.
Another problem solved.
LCDs are becoming a bit harder to get (they're out of production), but we're not having too big issues sourcing them right now, so that's fine as well.
So all in all, besides that all these things are eating up our time, I don't see any big problems right now.
3. email backlogs...
Well, you probably already saw it on other threads here at the boards: my email backlog is still pretty long... I got about 700 emails left to reply, and though I take some time to reply to them each few days, the queue is only slowly shrinking.
Each day, I receive about 20 more emails I need to reply... so yep, this is a MASSIVE amount of work.
Please don't be mad about that - I'll reply to all of your mails, but with all the other things I have to do at the same time right now, I'm not that fast.
I try to look at the mails when they come in and try to reply to the most important ones, but sometimes one of these hides itself in the massive queue.
Once GC fully assembles the units and I've got less things to organize, this will get better.
4. Where in the world is...
... no, not Carmen Santiego... but we're looking for someone else.
We all know: It's simply not possible that NOTHING goes wrong within Pandora-Land... so yeah, here is something new.
When buying bigger parts in large quantities (like LCDs and AC adaptors), you either have to handle the custom declaration yourself when you want to pick them up at the airport or get an agent who will do that for you.
Agents are not that expensive - and unlike me, they know what they're doing (and doing custom declaration wrong REALLY can cause issues).
So I hired the company SoundMoves at Munich Airport to do that for me.
Sent them the import tax fee right away (5000 EUR), picked up the custom documents and the goods, and everything was fine.
This was in March.
One week ago, I got an invoice from the customs about these 5000 EUR. Apparently, they hadn't been paid by SoundMoves... and SoundMoves are not able to pay them, so I have to pay them again.
WTH? SoundMoves bankrupt? It's a big worldwide operating company... handling transport for musicians like Madonna and U2...
Weird.
As I wasn't able to contact anyone in the Munich office, I emailed the main office in London.
And things got even weirder then.
They told me the company in Munich is a totally different company founded by the same CEO. He simply used the good name of the company to open up a new one... he even used their website for this company... even though the London office tried to tell him to use a different name.
Whew, what a bloke. But it gets even better.
The London office told me he also owes them quite a bit of money.
AND they don't even know where he is - they asked me to tell them his whereabouts in case I get hold of him.
They only know that he sometimes visits the office when no one is there to grab the mail and he most probably is somewhere in Italy... geeez.
Now most of you probably know that it's nigh impossible to get money back from a company that has filed for bankruptcy.
However, the case is a bit different here: They never had the right to use the 5000 EUR from me for themselves. It was not THEIR money, it was money they got simply to forward it to customs.
So this is fraud - which means: the CEO is personally liable for that.
My lawyer is already working on it and I'll pay a visit to the police tomorrow to report him.
Then they'll start a search for him...
In Pandora-Land, there's always something weird happening.
I'm pretty positive we'll get the money back from him soon, so this is mostly simply annoying and eating up some more of my precious time.
So all in all things are still working fine here
I wish it was less work for me, but I'm working towards that
