Very #tempted to use a #pinephone as a #mini #laptop #linux #pda #device https://linmob.net/using-the-pinephone-p.. It really doesn't look so bad for taking #notes , #progamming #scripts and doing a small amount of #internet #browsing !
Interesting use of a #ramdisk to avoid #corruption in the case of a #powercut on a #linux #device https://euroquis.nl//freebsd/2023/05/30/.. Definitely worth thinking about!
Okay, a #beepberry is precisely what I'm looking for in a #linux #pda , but it is #soldout already: https://hackaday.com/2023/05/27/beepberr.. The #price is even perfect too. I've requested to be put on the #preorder https://beepberry.sqfmi.com/ Amazing little #device !
Very interesting #tiny little #lithium #batteries that can be #soldered to a #pcb https://hackaday.com/2022/11/15/new-part.. I would definitely be interested in these. Could make for a nice #watch of #portable #device #battery , espeically when you use a few of them!
Wow, this new #phone #supports #riscv https://tuxphones.com/risc-v-phone-rvpho.. The benefit over this on top of a #linux #pda type #device is that it also supports #vocal and #text #messages , instead of just #data . Interesting that they are using #espressif 's #esp 32 #wifi and #bluetooth #module for additional #connectivity .
Sadly, most of the #pinetab #linux #os #images do not work for me at all: https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PineTab#Ope.. Seems to be a dead #device ...
Could be a new interesting #mobile #computer #device coming soon: https://www.hackster.io/news/sqfmi-s-fra.. Let's see what becomes of this #chat #device ...
So #mnt have just #released a new #pocketreform #netbook like #device https://mntre.com/media/reform_md/2022-0.. I love everything about it - other than the #aligned #keyboard #layout https://tuxphones.com/mnt-pocketreform-o.. The #performance is pretty good and hopefully the #battery lasts a while too. Very cool!
#paperdink is a nice #competitor in the #esp 32 #eink #display #market https://paperd.ink/ Definitely worth keeping an eye out for this #device !
Apparently #theroyalmint in the #uk is set to start #recycling #computer #device for their #previous #metals - about time! https://www.royalmint.com/aboutus/press-.. It's a shame they only got on board with this after so many years, #older #devices were known for having tonnes of precious metals in them!
Interesting #idea to bring #winamp back through a #dedicated #player ! https://hackaday.com/2022/02/20/winamp-r.. Perhaps somebody could #hack #webamp to run on the #device to get full support! https://github.com/captbaritone/webamp It's a shame it's based on #nodejs though...
Very interesting use of a #pipico to bring #usb #host and #device #capabilities https://github.com/sekigon-gonnoc/Pico-P.. This could be something that brings the #pineflash #project to life!
Very cool #device called a #penkesu #computer - a #homebrew #retro #laptop based on the #raspberrypi #zero http://penkesu.computer/ Very interested in the #keyboard , particularly the #lowprofile #choc #switches http://www.kailh.com/en/Products/Ks/CS/3.. 70 million #cycles ! Apparently this #project is from the same guy behind the #cutiepi #tablet ...
Very interesting #review of the #cutiepi #tablet - a #device wrapped around a #raspberrypi https://tuxphones.com/cutiepi-review-ope.. In terms of #upgradability and #maintainability - it is #leapyears ahead of #pine 's #pinetab ... It's a little #overpriced for such #lowend #hardware though, I believe the #pinetab is a much better #value proposition at $100 or 3x less than the #cutiepi !
Interesting #update from #linmob https://linmob.net/weekly-update-4-2022/ More people discussing the $15 #linux #device https://bbenchoff.github.io/pages/LinuxD.. #danct #released a new #arm #kernel that works nicely: https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/Pi.. I got my #pinetab #wifi #driver fixed again and #updated it. Some nice #updates all around!
Looks like #pine 's #pinephone now has a #keyboard https://www.pine64.org/2021/12/31/happy-.. This would now make the #device a #compelling #linuxpda - something I wish I now owned in retrospect given my own #phone #battery #failed and the #pinetab tried to kill itself.
