I have personally had terrible luck with Pandoras. I had two go down at the same time, and those are the only two Pandoras I have owned. They seem to have pretty much the same settings as WAS 2.0. Now, I have heard the RMOD coding is a significant improvement and can sometimes even revive a Pandora board that has gone stupid. I am going to put that to the test over D-Day when I take my two dysfunctional Pandoras and have them flashed there. There is one caveat re: the RMOD; it appears to be a one-way trip. I don't believe you can ever flash back to a different version of software once the RMOD is encoded. That said, RMOD has many more settings than any other AKA-compatible software. Modes abound, and there are settings that I don't think I have seen adjustable in Tadao.

I bought my viking with Pandora and had it flashed to rMod without ever using it with stock software. rMod has alot of adjustable settings, 18 slots through trigger programming. Some of them are excalibur only, some of them are very minor.

Adjustable ramp cap is what I need to play PSP legal, and I can do that with rMod. Works for me.

Has anything come of this show-of-interest?

Got lukewarm responses on a couple forums. Sold a couple used ones I had and took a bit to do that. There are too many forthcoming solutions to make reproducing old tech worth while.

As far as I can tell you would have to be crazy to dump thousands of dollars into getting these made again so it will most likely never happen (unless someone with a fat bank account loses their mind).

Out of curiosity, what are these forthcoming solutions?

I asked Will if he would do another run.

The minimum size run he can produce is 100 units to make it worth his time.
