Like the estimated launch date, etc.? The article said that the Pinebook Pro would have 64Gb storage, 802.11ac Wifi, 4Gb ram and a Hexa-core CPU?
But what interested me the most was a Nvme slot. What are your thoughts about the Pinebook Pro?
Yes, I've registered to the forums purely for this, I watched in anticipation of the Original Pinebook, but at the time I needed a daily driver and from what little I've heard the PineBook Pro could fill the void... The article I read mentioned 2019 Q3 or Q4.
I too registered primarily for this product and am thinking of this as an alternative to a new Chromebook which I have been considering. I am comfortable with debian and ubuntu and hope these or a derivative of these will be available with a lighter desktop interface such as XFCE or LXDE. Old school but very light weight.

There is a NMVE port on the board for faster storage.
Yes, but is there space for the actual disk inside it?
