The advent of cheap ARM-based tablets flooding the market has made the Pandora a bit irrelevant.  Game emulators for all the old retro-consoles have been ported to Android and work quite well.  And with 3D hardware support via Mali or Tegra, these systems look even more attractive than the Pandora which is beginning to show its age.  Quite a few tablets can also be flashed to run Linux or dual-boot Android and Linux too.  And if that's too technical for some users, they can always run Linux in a chroot environment on top of Android.  You can find a Tegra-3 based tablet for quite a bit less than $200 USD and many of them support keyboards. Pandora was a cool idea 3 years ago and I wanted to buy one but they always sold out before I could place my order.  These days, I'm glad I didn't get one because the support and upgrades I get for my Asus Transformer Prime have been well worth it.
