I tried to pre-order one, but I couldn't get PayPal option to actually work or be available to use after about the 2nd step or so in checkout process.....

That's what I'm hoping too, Chero....

FWIW, I got email back from Pandora that I could order through PayPal by just sending them funds through PayPal using their PayPal account address. They just asked that I get through checkout process just before making payment and copying the info on the order summary page and pasting it into the PayPal payment message box...did that and they sent me an email back confirming that I ordered a Pandora....

Just thought this might be helpful info to someone else who might want to order via PayPal....

Anyway, this lil' thing better be good or Capn_Fish is in big trouble.....

Does it accept preorder outside of europe? I can only see it supports those areas only.

I guess it doesn't support. I cannot find China in all the pre-ordering sites.

Thanks, it helps.
BTW: are we obliged to pay for the tariff for it? Or they can deliver in USA without our interaction in the whole process?

It already runs ubuntu and the GP2X can boot and run OZ-OPIE and GPE ...
Debian isn't too far away then ...

Looking at the speed of the ubuntu video, I must say I'm impressed. This really beats the speed of the Z (some will hate me for writing this). Too bad it doesn't have a swivel, but then again, I hardly use a Z in portrait mode...

starting to countdown days before arrival ...

Well, all I know is that I've never had to pay any customs duties for any items I've ordered from outside USA...
