@archivescribe @DaveMasonDotMe There's the #FLX1s from @furilabs

Also, upcoming projects from @mechasystems, @dawndrums and @Liberux

Of course, there's the #LibertyPhone / #Librem5 from @purism for true #gnuLinux... which I heard is receiving a new modem upgrade this year. That's what I'm currently daily driving with #postmarketOS.

Plus que 70h pour la précommande - Mecha Comet - Open Modular Linux Handheld Computer

Introducing the Mecha Comet
The Mecha Comet is a re-imagined portable computer that gives you the flexibility in hardware and software both, for your usecase. It all started with us wanting to build a small computer that we could easily program, deploy and manage remotely.

Once we entered this rabbit hole, we realised how customisable and versatile we could make this, bring the fun with computers back.

Our largest advantage is that we do everything ourselves - mechanicals, PCB design, software and supply chain. We are a full-time team of 15 and are supported by a number of agencies, contractors and contributors. This gives us a unique edge wherein we are in control of every part of the product and are able to craft your experience on every level.

Changed my order on the Mecha Comet. I've downgraded because a.) I can get by on lesser processor power at the moment b.) it won't suck the battery balls dry and c.) I'm impatient. #Mecha #MechaComet

@cryptica There's the #mechaComet over on kickstarter. It's not really designed as a phone-first device, but there's an option to have a built in lte modem. I'll bet someone will come along to create a software dialer for it.

best part is it's true linux, not some sort of frankenstein linux-ized android like the #flx1

The Kickstarter campaign is still a few dollars short of reaching a million. I'm considering creating a second Kickstarter account so I can get both processor models. #mecha #mechaComet

I don’t usually review hardware publicly but my personal #FOSDEM highlight forced my hand. I checked out the mecha comet meetup, and all I can say is: This thing is exceptionally well‑designed. Multiple iterations and each one smarter than the last. #comet #mechaComet
