    Presumably you could add a 4G USB modem as well and use it as a phone.

      That would be interesting. I wonder if the internals would allow for the use of the PCIe 2.1 > m.2 for a 5G module but that’d rinse the battery

    Goddamn that looks so gloriously retro.

    It’s the handheld that a plucky mining crew employed by Weyland-Yutani would use. I love it.

    Oh, love the early-'90s throwback design!

    I’m not entirely sold on the peripheral keyboard, but only because my fat fingers would press multiple tiny keys if I tried to type. I guess Liliputing implies li’l fingers 🙂

    7 inch display has always been unusable for this form factor. I get that it’s easy to integrate with the pi but when using a cyber deck as a laptop it’s like trying to read a postage stamp.

    HMDs like the Xreal Air seem like the better way to go: ditch the integrated screen.
