And you can always leave a USB dongle for a keyboard attached to the Pine for any changes that you may need to do...
I wanted to have an interactive smart mirror. Basically have the equivalent of a big android tablet with the mirror feature.
That way I can have more functionality and I'm not limited to just one "home screen". Sure, I'd have a standard screen with weather, calendar events, time etc. But it'd be nice to
load different apps (detailed weather, detailed calendar, maps, music, weather, spotify, youtube, internet browser, etc)
Makes sense. I wouldn't mind making mine interactive as well, unless it is voice or gesture only. As Luke said above, touch for the mirror is not really a good idea...
Keep everyone posted here when you make any progress and I will do the same once I start working on this idea in a bit more time and make any new strides.
