Angrandir: One nitpick about the soundrack - what is with that last track - is it intentional and official (as-it-was-released)? (1:47 from "Time Only Knows" + one minute of silence + some other song)?
After some googling, I found 4:20 version of the same, sounds like the whole thing (128 kbps only):

Yeah, the weirdness of the last track is official, it's the same on my original CD-Audio... Anyway I've "dumped" my bootleg, full version by recording it on the game's end credits :-P

DarrkPhoenix: Unless the game suddenly and inexplicably becomes unbelievably annoying towards the end I'm going to have to grab the newest PoP as well once I finish with Sands of Time.

I'd suggest you get the rest of the trilogy as well - even though other two games are not as good(well... Warrior Within may have better gameplay, I've finished it countless time, but it's not as good as SoT), both have great stories and, as trilogy, PoP is AWESOME! :D

Yeah I hope GOG gets the other 2 games as well, I never got a chance to play them & they'd be a sure purchase for me. Hell a sale of all 3 would be perfect

I was considering the two sequels, but from what I've read of them it looks like there are several aspects that would make them much less enjoyable for me. The greater complexity of combat and greater focus on it (especially in Warrior Within) is something I don't think I'd care for, and moreover the introduction of more time-sensitive platforming (Dahaka chase sequences and platforming as the Dark Prince), which I find a bit too stressful to be enjoyable (a key factor to me enjoying Sands of Time is being able to almost always take my time to figure out the platforming sequences).

I played Warrior Within on a mobile phone.

As with SoT, rewinding time makes the game as little frustrating as possible. And it's not that hard either, on easy anyways. If you could get it cheap enough, you'd simply get a fantastic story extention. As for 3rd Prince... Well, StarForce, so let's pray GoG will get it :D Anyway, it had damn frustrating boss fights, but if you 'stealthed' trough the game, it wasn't hard at all

Does the game support gamepad? I remember playing it using mouse+keyboard and it was trully a horrible experience...

Well, I guess I have absolutely no excuse to not at least give the demo a shot. Thanks for the link.

Weird, I actually found it to be the most natural 3d platformy game I'd ever played and actually thought the controls were excellent.
I think the non-gog version I have has gamepad support, if not, have a look for a program called xpadder
