The Z-Pi : portable raspberry pi computer.

Sat Nov 16, 2013 11:10 pm

hello!!! just look for the numbers and answer there questions.

So I need help building my raspberry pi portable, Z-Pi. If you know about open pandora, i kinda want the case to look like that. so, 1:how can I put the power wire and video wire from the 4.3" tft ,to the board (A.K.A:The raspberry pi). im also usingn that keyboard off amazon, the one with the touchpad on the side ,has different models one with the laser pointer and without so, 2.I want the keyboard built in the case of the portable and I want to power everything at once ,so should I take it apart and put it on the case, also can I power it and use it?. im also wondering , 3: is it a good idea to use the push button power switch off adafruit on the back of the screen ,so like when you take it out your pocket all you have to do is push the button and open the portable, and close the portable push the button and power it off? i want built in sound so 4: what good speakers can i use to put in the case...or should this be headphone only more a more slim case? 5: is there a good working virson of android for the pi yet? lastly 6: would the case look good like a opan pandora or a top screen just like a ds , but the bottom is round on the sides?
7: should this even fold up lke a ds...because the henge would ware out?
so this may become a reality or it may not but i still need to know all these questions for future referance once im not a noob at pi after i get it. i would recomend store bought things like if i can get it in the radio shack in pasagula or staples and office depote. 20 parts are already ordered so...yeah.
but please answer my question and leave a comment below.
thanks

:shock: this...is gonna cost a fortune...I can feel it.

also: what store can i find a pocket sized worthy screen for this?

... if you want a open pandora why not just buy one? If the point is to DIY won't 1/2 the fun be answering those questions yourself?

[edit]
wow it's ~$600 I would just get the c720 or nexus5 for ~$200 or ~$400
