Open Source Handheld Linux Device [video]
- cjj_swe 7mo agoI'm old enough to have purchased an Open Pandora and seriously considered """"pre-ordering"""" a Dragonbox Pyra. I'm so glad I decided to hold off until launch because well would you look at the time! It's been twelve years.
- Grumbledour 7mo agoAnd the pandora took years to arrive, got constantly more expensive while waiting, while the hardware got pretty long in the tooth. Still, it was a greadt device! But when it arrived, it was already a curiosity from another time and I feel this even more so for the Pyra.

- poisonborz 7mo agoA much simpler alternative is a $25 R36S handheld console (more powerful 4 core cpu, runs both debian and android) and print a different case with a keyboard.
- happymellon 7mo agoLink to a suitable keyboard? Seems like an interesting idea. [Edit] Oh, I see. You can get them in retro Gameboy shapes, so then any of the BlackBerry keyboards would work.
