I am ONLY interested in this if it will be possible to code on it. I am fairly certain most of the HN community would agree that a device that "completes the circle" (allows you to create native apps on the device, for the device) is better than a device (almost) purely designed for consumption and communication over creation.
- criddell 11y agoThe best device is one that works for you. For most people, that just means it runs the software that they want. It's silly to say that a device that completes the circle is objectively better than one that doesn't.
- zimpenfish 11y agoConflating "create native apps" with "creation" is a bit daft - I have an Air 2 which is used for creation (graphics, audio) and very little consumption or communication.

But I've had my eye on it ever since it seeing it on HN a couple years ago. I think it's an awesome idea, and I've come close to buying it several times simply to support the creator.
