That one has some pretty funny moments.

Apparently, The Sands of Time has a PoP1-ish bonus level:

An approx. 50 minute talk (at the GDC of 2011) by Jordan Mechner, about the making of Prince of Persia:

Similar to his old journals, but with some different details and visuals.

Really has some interesting details that I don't think are mentioned in Mechner's old journals.
Including this one: did you know that the main sword fighting frames are from the 1938 film The Adventures of Robin Hood?
Look closely at the 6-10 seconds starting here.
So, this is named "ROB-2" because of Robin Hood.

I've created a small video about this.

Apparently they removed the video and put it up again.
Here's the new location (as mentioned by Jakim in the shoutbox):
