I've been waiting on my #ClockworkPi #UConsole patiently since 1AUG25. Or 135 Business Days.
Its now 7JAN25. When I reached out to the company in late September, I was told shipping was 90 Business Days and that my device was being manufactured.
10NOV25, told they're "aiming to ship by December"
Christmas, told it will ship in January.
Anyone else received a product from this company?
I’ve been attempting to get the #freedv AppImage for #flexradio running on the RPi4 I use as my Allstar Node. I couldn’t get it to decode.
Managed to get it running on my #uconsole and received ON4LX operating on #qo100.
Spoiler: there is a firewall on the Allstar Node.
I’ve been meaning to put my #uConsole to use for a while. I want to use it instead of my phone for some everyday tasks (emails, dashboards, etc...), to avoid distractions.
I was looking into terminal dashboards and I came across #wtfutil and #sampler, but none of them covered the functionality I need: calendars, weather, remote host stats and I didn’t like the ergonomy of these apps. “Obviously” I ended up rolling my own using #golang and #bubbletea.
In the past few days I worked on the calendar widget, so I learned a lot about #CalDav and #iCalendar, and in the end I was even able to contribute to https://github.com/emersion/go-webdav.
Vor den Feiertagen noch Post aus China bekommen, Yay! #Hackergadgets Teile für die #uConsole.
Jetzt mit CM5, NVME, USB3, RTC und LAN! Orginal bleiben eigentlich nur noch Gehäuse, Tastatur und Bildschirm. Aber dafür taugt die uConsole jetzt als vollwertiger Linux Computer.

So, initial thoughts so far on the Clockwork uConsole:
- The trackball is pretty bad, would classify it as barely functional.
- Wifi does not work which severely limits things...maybe an antenna problem? Verified it was securely installed on the CM4 module.
- Install isn't bad, very solid device.
- The thermal pad for the RPi CM4 is waaaay too thick.
