You can expect to see those adapters in the shop in the near future. Here are some pictures tllim linked earlier in the IRC.

That's awesome Luke. Should make the eMMC flashing much easier.

Great work !

I was looking for one, because I have the f**d emmc sandisk 64gb that doesn't run. ;(

This will be great to see if it's a hardware problem or a software problem...

Check IRC logs - software.

Yep, I received a email support that says sandisk isn't compatible with pinebook yet.

A new patch will come on next two weeks

I've got one of those adaptors.
Looks cheap but works as designed.

Usage is simple as hell.
Just flash OS image as you would do to SDcard.
No need for SD 2 MMC images
As new Rock64 user I can definitely recommend this simple solution.

I have a couple now too and they seem easy enough too use. Only things I would recommend is to handle them carefully since open electronics/connectors are ESD sensitive and the board-to-board connectors of the eMMC modules are not designed for hundreds of mating cycles like cable connectors...
