I am looking forward to this device because I really love the form factor. I do think ti will fail however, the reason being why most of these kind of devices fail today: lack of focus on software. Just slapping some form of android on you device doesn't make it great. Even if you do everything right, you are still just as good as all other major players in the market. But of course, most companies can't even ship android updates and start with old versions to begin with, so there is that. And android apps often are not really optimized for every other form factor that a phone in portrait mode. So, then there are the ones with linux, like this one. Which is cool, because you can run whatever you want. But also, linux is mostly an afterthought for the device maker and even if it isn't, software is seldom adopted beyond installing a lightweight desktop and switching out some icons. and even if it were, linux really is not build for mobile usage today, so the UI will very likely still be really bad. I think unlike there is much more focus on adopting software to these form factors, using these kind of devices will always be sub-par. And that's a real shame, because I feel they have such as much potential as pure smartphones. A portable computer that can really do some work and be nice to use for more than watching video is a problem no one seems to really have cracked yet.
