The PineTab doesn’t even have a wifi/bt radio that’s supported by its own OS. When you’re an OEM and you’re choosing what chips you’re putting in a design, I think you should stick to chips that are usable. Chips where the manufacturer has written specs and maybe even a driver that transforms “a piece of glass with a lead frame” into something with a purpose.

Anyway, that’s just how I feel.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
