Thanks Kevin, I really appreciate your input. I spent a couple days down rabbit holes learning more about the device and SoC, and various development options, and starting to get a feel for things. Meantime it was sat on my desk and I noticed it seems to go flat very quickly, even with no simm, wifi, ble. Together with the performance issues I am starting to think maybe a RTOS is actually the right choice for this device... on the other hand I like the idea of having linux available and quite tempted to get the keyboard accessory 
Do you know if WASM is a supported option for app development, ie has a fast enough browser with WASM enabled? ideally exposing both canvas and WebGL... big ask maybe, but I think webGL(v1) is openGL ES 2, which the Mali GPU seems to support... and maybe the mali openVG support is being used for canvas2D? Probably wishful thinking, but that might give me a more performant App environment...
[edit] btw I did take on board your advice with OS updates, and appreciate the instructions, but I think it is important for me to first understand the delivered 'Beta' experience, assuming this is what will ship on the final device? and what my potential app users will first experience, and how that will translate to support work for me. Although maybe the 'beta' is hardware side only.
