    That looks like it’d be horrible to type on though. Might be a better idea to spring for the PineTab or a System76 laptop for actual productivity, or get one of those “dumb terminal” display and keyboard combos that can hook up to a phone and take advantage of mobile Linux’s convergence features. Or a bluetooth keyboard, which has the additional benefit of being usable for any computer, some of them even fold for portability.

        That rounded edge screen on the JingPad though, not sure if I like that TBH. It would probably interfere with other non-JingOS desktops and probably adds to the cost.

        I blame Android phone manufacturers for popularizing it to the point where everyone wants to do it.

      All the things just mentioned are not even in the same ballpark as the use case for this. This will still fit in your pocket. As one device. Obviously a full size tablet/laptop or BT keyboard would be nicer to type on but…they don’t fit in your pocket.
