The form factor is what makes the device so enticing to me. But maybe going used is the way to go.

I already have a laptop. I was in the market for a small tablet.

Thank you, but the other comments have dissuaded me from getting a 4GB device. ;)

I was specifically hoping for something with the 10" form factor. I already have a thinkpad as a laptop and was hoping for something with a smaller form factor.

Thanks for the tips. I guess it's really a bad idea after all.

Here's hoping that the pinetab will be in stock sometime in the future. :)

Oof. Didn't even think of the SSD bit. The surface devices are generally good quality but the repairability is apparently atrocious with all these soldered Chips.

Thanks for the hint. I guess I was a bit over-eager since I've been thinking about getting one for quite some time and now this "bargain" appeared out of nowhere. :/

Sir, this is a meme community

I have big pockets (in my jacket) ;)

The SSD thing you mentioned is quite a good point. :/

A shame that android/google and apple have the market cornered so much.

Unfortunately, those don't support a stylus. Although I love seeing a RISC-V tablet (although I wouldn't be able to use it, since I'm not a kernel developer ;)
