A Raspberry Pi CM5-powered handheld with a 10,000mAh battery, TrackPoint, and tactile keyboard is preparing for launch. Its open-source pitch sounds familiar, but the execution might not be.
I don’t understand this form factor. It’s too small for any serious work, both in terms of screen size and typing, and it’s too big to fit in your pocket. So you might as well carry a small laptop around, since it would actually be usable. Feels like a novelty that is just meant to satisfy a cyberpunk aesthetic, if you’ve got the money to burn on something that you’ll probably only use a few times, or occasionally at best.

It fits the aesthetics of my other niche unusable electro junk just fine, thank you very much
