hm kinda interested actually but if GPD goes for the sysadmin crowd it needs a) a good keyboard (feedback and layout / usability) b) good linux support c) longterm driver and bios support d) robustness given how fast they drop support for their devices and that the keyboards are less than...

and then there is always plan 'B' :D : https://www.chicaandjo.com/2014/04/13/diy-colorful-computer-keyboard/

I use a Lenovo Yoga Book for something similar and a few months ago I would have recommended it, it has a thin clamshell 10" design with a (touch based) keyboard - quite nice device but Lenovo ended support for it and it is now stuck on Android 7.11

If you are actually using the Pyra e.g. screen is on and processor running then the difference between 2GB and 4GB in power consumption will be tiny and probably unnoticeable BUT if the Pyra sleeps and almost everything else is turned of the difference between having to power and refresh 2GB and...

I bought a couple of those a while ago : https://voltacharger.com/ they snap on magnetically and do not care about directions ;) only downside is some of my gear has micro usb sockets which are worn out over time so sometimes the magnetic force from the cable is bigger than the socket friction...

GPD is sitting in Shenzehn which means they have everything they need within walking distance :D also they are on a totally different scale, they can just pay specialists (chinese rates) because they sell a lot more units I do not know how much inhouse development they actually do, it is very...

I wonder what target audience they are aiming this one at ? no developer or office user I know would give up their mouse input for a touchscren ... so I can see 2 use cases for this : surfing the web and writing emails ... anything more complex on a touchscreen is a pain in the ass

adding to that the generic hardware (with a nice enclosure though, I like the onyx ones looks) plus a launcher and they only charge as much as a Playstation 4 for it ... wow if love makes stupid nostalgia must make braindead :D But as this case is made by stacking lasercuts ... hm ... *edit*...

I always think of the Pyra as a very shy animal: as long as we all stare at it, it moves extremly slowly but once we loose interest and look away it will escape into the wild ;)

so far they have some renders and photoshopped images ... long, long way to a finished and useable product someone had one of these btw. : https://www.slashgear.com/umid-mbook-m2-debuts-faster-cpu-499-in-q4-video-2257507/ ? (like almost a decade ago ...) stumbled onto that one while searching...

after looking into this, it seems that it is actually difficult to say ... perhaps a factor of 2x-3x ? (emulating 64bit operations on 32bit systems takes roughly 10x but not all operations are 64bit) I initially thought that only the Raspberry Pi (one) was running a 32bit OS (as its a 32bit...

thats quite interesting ... gonna have an eye on that one too

get a Jelly : https://www.unihertz.com/jelly.html its tiny, rather unexpensive and I use one as my work phone and as LTE modem - its Android though

hm interesting, if thats indeed the reason we will see it from other companies soon too ...

which wacom pen version did you try ? the one I use on my laptop (older pen) does not work with my tablet (newer pen) and vice versa

Cloud sync mostly, you need a free account with them and there are desktop / mobile apps for it too - you can save your notes as pdf or png from it and upload pdf and epub to it But they added USB transfer support to it ...

bought a kit for one of these: seems okay so far but will take some time to assemble

these make life ever so much easier : https://makerspot.com/6mm-2pin-through-hole-tactile-switch-x-10-pack/

LEDs are current driven, and they have a forward voltage which below they will not light up - any kind of LC filter there is a bad, really bad idea, over current is a death sentence you can use a fixed current source with pwm or an adjustable current source to regulate their brightness pwm is...

thats an interesting one and they claim lower power usage than before - they even provide a power estimate calculation tool, sadly thats a 10mb big excel file with its own, seperate handbook :mad: 1,1V device which means it needs expert work for a reliable PCB, good board house and...
