I have a DevTerm R-01 and it is basically a beautiful $200 novelty cyberdeck that sits on my desk. The R01 version in particular is greatly under powered and is really only usable with twm and a Xterm.
I mostly use it to read gopher:// and the kids love printing things off using it's thermal printer.
- syntaxing 3y agoHow is the keyboard? I have pretty small hands and it does not look like I can use it comfortably.
- ecliptik 3y agoIt's not great but not absolutely horrible. Two-finger typing most of the time and the overall feel is stiff, but not too stiff. I usually hold it with my hands and use my thumbs, like a Game Gear. Re-mapping the "d-pad" joystick and "yxba" buttons to arrow keys and hjkl [1] makes it easy to read and navigate text content on it (hence of gopher://), especially with the wide and high resolution screen. 1. https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/mapping-devterm-r-01-gamepad-to-keys-in-xorg/9596 https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/mapping-devterm-r-01-gamepad...
- danielnoiz 3y agoIt's size is what turned me off most about the devterm. I would be much more tempted by a device just a bit bigger. This[1] blog post has good pictures, one next to a DVD case for size comparison.
