It would be interesting to see the battery life of GPD.

This could be a nice Linux mini-PC, but somewhat pricey. Is the sound chip working (often an issue with Atom-based SoCs)?

This aims to be a portable gaming console, that is why it has gaming controls.
At a certain point i was thinking of building a similar device with an Intel Compute Stick, a 5 inch lcd and a bluetooth keyboard.

"If it ever ships..."
I am personally tired of that phrase.

I am going to try installing Arch Linux tomorrow because a user on reddit by the name of "Azelphur" worked around a few bugs and got the wifi working and the rotation crash fixed.
I will post a full review in a couple weeks.
For now, I am willing to answer any questions you might have.
Yikes
