Very shallow summary:
In other words, nothing new for us, but interesting nonetheless.
- Stuff about open handhelds in general.
- Stuff about how ED came into the scene, aka first as a general user, then as a retailer, then as the key person for the german community.
- The history of GP32 and GP2X, aka how GP released the original device to compete with the GBA, how they used a common storage card format because they wanted to save money, then the community came in and started writing stuff for the device because of the common storage format, etc... Then, the split pf GP→GPH, the newer, more open-source devices, etc. Basically a history lesson that most of us in this forum already know.
- Info about the Pandora, how it came up as an April fools joke (well not really but you know the story, why do I explain this? :P ), the community came with lots of ideas, and ED announced that he wanted to create the Pandora (you all know the thread "Our New Device" (or is that the name?))
- Summary of how difficult it was to create the Pandora, but that the community always stayed loyal etc.
- Info about the Dingoo etc, and how it's inferior to the Pandora (kinda :P )
- Explanation why open devices are superior, because they have open SDKs, communities, open application marketplaces, etc.
In other words, nothing new for us, but interesting nonetheless.
