The hardware sounds interesting but $1000 for what’s ultimately just a simplified Surface Pro with regular Linux running on it is a bit steep IMHO.
The hardware is closer to a surface go than a surface pro, just with a bigger screen.
Intel on mobile has always been painful so that choice in CPU is interesting.
