I'm really excited about the PinePhone and look forward to being able to buy one. However, I'll only be able to use it if I can get work email from Exchange or Office 365 (activesync) and possibly the Lyft app for when I'm traveling. Is there a native linux mobile email app that can handle activesync? Will Android emulation be good at handling Lyft? Thank you for any insight you can give.

Activesync is supported by evolution. Not sure if that's ported already. Android evolution is in early stage but i know that Aliendalvik works great under Sailfish OS. It's proprietary though and would have to be made available first. Don't expect the Pinephone right now to be as easy as Android.

I hope to be able to run a KDE Linux operating system, just like on my personal Desktop. I should be able to run Evolution on KDE without issue, if it's ported to ARM.
