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.
that was the logic that most of them used and i get it a little bit if you’re on 20+ hour flight when laptop batteries lasted less than 2 hours back then, but the thought of writing code in one of these makes my hand hurt:
i supposed it wasn’t so bad for the python or ruby guys, but they were in the minority at the time. most were writing in java and that seems painful with all of the non-romantic characters that it requires wo an ide; atleast this lini device has full keyboard w curly braces.

I had to manage with one of these things:
At least it ran Linux. The one thing the Zaurus had going for it though? Completely readable in sunlight. It was amazing at the time.
