Pandora2 should be 6" Linux PC

No ifs, no buts. It will be great for productivity, gaming, media, web, etc.

By the way, I'm getting one of those.

What would the specs of a 16:10 6" screen be? The one for that Chinese phone in the video is said to be 6" fwvga 480x854 capacitive multi touch screen.

6" would be too big - I want the P2 to fit in my pocket

I have a Galaxy Note II with a 5.5" screen.  It is perfectly pocketable - even in the pocket of a dress shirt.

However, a lot of that pocketability is because it is very thin at 9.4mm.  I do also keep a factory flip cover on it that adds ~ 1mm too, so call it 10.5 mm.

A 6" P2 is theoretically possible IF they manage to keep the whole thing under 20mm maximum.  Anything thicker than that and you're smuggling a brick.  Preferably it would come in at 15mm - but then you're dealing with a level of production precision that is a world beyond.

I'd say the critical dimension is the width (i.e. the one thats 83mm in the P1) - the hinge is a significant part of this, reducing the space available for a screen when compared to a completely flat device
