Well! My mnt reform pocket arrived today.

First impressions?
- This thing is a chonky girl - also, feels ultra-durable
- The GPU on the default CPU SOM is decent, but doesn't seem to be up to driving a 1080p external monitor at that resolution
- This thing is both awesome and impressive.

Seriously amazing.

@fireborn I splurged and ordered it back in January since I assumed the economy would crash and having a durable documented self-maintainable linux machine would be useful.

I'm glad I did! Even if I curse every time I try and use an ortholinear keyboard... :P

The site says shipping in 3/4 months. Is this now inaccurate?

@fireborn I don't know. That's about how long my wait was, but I also know they are dealing with the tariff/supply chain thing, which remains volatile. Both crowdsupply and minute are here on the fediverse (plus have forums, IIRC) and you could ask?

I'm very very tempted. I see small tech I'm interested. I see open source platform and I'm even more interested.

@fireborn Understandable!

Please know it's not a powerful system -- closer to an SBC like a raspi, even with the rk3588 upgrade card. It's absolutely not going to be to everybody's taste, but I'm a weirdo!

Oh of course, that's made very clear by the chip. I have other systems for more demanding tasks, some just as portable which is what makes me hesitate (I don't usually get things without an already thought of usecase)
