this is from the OpenPandora FAQ

"Solder pads were designed into the PCB for "hacking" in extra internal hardware."

does this mean you can add stuff without voiding the warraty? note that they purposely designed it into the pandora

It means that they're there if you want to use them. However, as per MDave's post before yours, regarding what it says in the Quick Start Guide that's supplied with the machine, opening the unit will void the warranty.
