I like the look of the Pandora esp the black version, basically looks like a DS with a Keyboard on the bottom instead of a screen.

But the name Pandora, does anyone else think they could have chose better ?

It is as good as a name as any. The Pandora 'box' seems to reflect the ability to do anything given the hardware setup and the right developers.

It's a clamshell design yeah?

So you're not supposed to open it as doing so will release evils upon the world?

Pandora isnt bad but its not overly novel. I cant say I like the design much either, but that wasent a cad-miller worthy model so I dont think it was final.
I miss names like megadrive and mastersystem.
Playstation I allways thoguht was a bit lame... As is Xbox, untill they release the 'direct-xbox' at least (Should be the next one).
Gamecube was a good name but a better logo.

I think they should call the Pandora the GP3XXXZX-MONDO Edition. Hehe.

Not a bad name, at least it's better than random words like GP32 or GP2X.

No way, it sounds to me like a codename, Revolution, Alpha, Dolphin. To tacky/ cliche.

No way, it gets me too confused with the psp's pandora hack

IMHO, Its getting away from from generic words for container and game, as well as words referring to the ability to play games...that makes it awesome

Pandora always makes me think of the Psp Pandora battery hack.
