The idea behind the computer seems like a cool idea, but the implementation is going to make adoption very very difficult.
They claim to support Android legacy apps. What if you need to use Photoshop? Or some other Windows-based application like Excel? Can you install open-sourced apps like GIMP? Or Roll up a VM? Is there a shell? What kind of applications does it come with natively?
They really don't give much information at all. I'm not sure who their target market is but I am guessing it's geared towards people who just browse the internet, watch videos, stream music, send emails, etc. Why would you pay a subscription for that? I can't imagine large numbers jumping on for this kickstarter other than someone looking for a new toy to burn some money on.
I think they're trying to solve way too many problems at once. Seems like they're trying to create an entirely new ecosystem amongst the likes of Windows, OSX, or Android, but they're eons behind in that race.
The UI seems pretty neat, I wish they had more examples of usage.
