No, we don’t. Pandora is very different than anything currently available. It is designed to serve a niche market of hobbyists and retro/indie gamers. We are aware that much of the general public will not need or appreciate Pandora’s feature set. It is more portable than a UMPC or eeePC, and it has far superior gaming controls. Pandora is much more powerful than a PSP or DS, and with it’s high resolution screen and qwerty keypad is more capable of general computing activities. These features come at the expense of a higher cost than commercial gaming handhelds and a steeper learning curve than traditional ultra mobile PCs. Not everybody will be willing to make the trade off and try something new.
