Pandora news, straight from the source!

Quote:

All good things come to an end
And I’m really sure the Pandora is a good thing.

Here are some updates for you. The guys following the boards or my twitter account will most probably know all of this already.

The Cases
The case moulds have been finished and samples were shipped. They will arrive on Monday and if all is okay, themass production of the cases can start immediately.
They can do about 1000 a day and chinese holidays do start on February 14th. Therefore, to be on the safe side, they will probably do 1000 cases and ship them to the assembly factory. Assembling and testing will take a while anyways, there will not be much time between the time when the first 1000 are finished and the next cases will be ready to ship.

The Boards
Another 1000 boards have been populated and are ready to be put into a case. Therefore, as soon as those 1000 cases do arrive, there’s no reason to wait for mass production already!

Let’s keep hoping all goes well!

atari2600land has updated his single and two player simultaneous play variant of a very well known russian block game. The game was previously known as “Tetris”.

Release notes:

Was test-playing this and kept finding a bug which made the game freeze sometimes if you’re on level 9. So I just removed level 9 altogether. Now if you get 80 blocks, that’s the fastest speed there is. And it’s still pretty hard on that speed (at least for me.)

Taskbar Launcher is a little tool that shows a customizeable launch pad when you hit the taskbar.

Attention: Current version is designed for newer 6.5.x builds of Windows Mobile with the start menu on bottom. Taskbar Launcher is blocking all other applications from the taskbar, so it might be a bad idea to use it when your Start menu is still on top.

Changes:

Fixed bug: Taskbar launcher showed instead of HTC Volume Control (tested on Touch Diamond)
Fixed bug: Selected icons stayed selected when moving out of the icon
Taskbar is split up into 3 areas, each of them can launch something (see INI file)
Supported commands: switch to Start menu, switch to Manila
Added $ROTATELEFTBACK and $ROTATERIGHTBACK
Added switch to deactive Taskbar launcher (workaround if “Stop Taskbar launcher” leads to problems….)
Finally there’s link in Startmenu to Taskbar launcher (configuration tool automatically starts Taskbar launcher when finished)
More options in popup menu (see screenshot)
Added first-stage configuration GUI (see other screenshot
