The Pandora font seems to be really close to WerkHaus Medium according to What The Font:  http://spatula-city.org/~im14u2c/images/pandora_werkhaus_medium.gif  If you replace the 'a' with a 'd' whose stem has been chopped and round all the sharp corners slightly, you arrive at the final result, I think. --[[User:Intvnut|Intvnut]] 07:29, 13 May 2009 (CEST)

Does this hardware do A2DP encoding?  One big problem I had with the Openmoko Freerunner is that it would support A2DP headphones through bluetooth, but only if you did it in software through ALSA or gstreamer via the bluez stack, which would chew up a bunch of CPU and the audio would skip if ever the system needed the CPU time for something else.

I got a Nokia N900 instead and it seems to do its A2DP encoding in hardware so I was able to find a good open source solution for listening to my podcasts, but I'm also interested in this device.

Battery Inaccurate

They're going with a 10-100hr battery instead, custom-made, last we heard. The Wiki needs to be updated. I'll do it later today, but in case anyone else wants to do it... :)

A2DP Encoding

Does this hardware do A2DP encoding? One big problem I had with the Openmoko Freerunner is that it would support A2DP headphones through bluetooth, but only if you did it in software through ALSA or gstreamer via the bluez stack, which would chew up a bunch of CPU and the audio would skip if ever the system needed the CPU time for something else.

I got a Nokia N900 instead and it seems to do its A2DP encoding in hardware so I was able to find a good open source solution for listening to my podcasts, but I'm also interested in this device.
