Jeez, these guys are still around? I ordered an original Pandora somewhere around... October 2008? They never shipped it. $300, plus an additional $100 later at some point, and I never got anything. Kinda kills any interest in further developments.

People are used to this kind of thing by now, but this was pre-Kickstarter... And a lot worse considering other people in the same batch as me did get what they paid for.

Not sure what happened at the beginning but the past years the shipping and support has been great. I can see this would kill your interest; don't think EvilDragon does that to anyone though.

If I get what you mean, yeah, it was through Craig. EvD said he was going to help the leftovers, but all he said he could offer me was an RMA'd unit, IIRC (or pay an additional $300 to get an upgraded one).

Yes, I heard about Craig. That was before I knew of the OpenPandora though: I would've put money down as well if I heard of it before.
