@stguller: Any that have ARM packages. On day one you can expect Debian and Ubuntu builds. But I am pretty sure that many other including Manjaro and KDE Neon - projects we have a very good working relationships with - will follow swiftly after. There is a lot of interest surrounding the Pinebook Pro, and I've spoken to prominent devs from large projects, so I expect that many popular distributions will find their way to the PB Pro
@kracejic, I haven't answered this before because the specs are not final -- the current prototype is approx 1.3kg, but please don't take this as a final answer.
[edit] about booting from NVMe ... you could use NVMe as a boot disk once SPI flash is figured out and you can flash uboot to it. I guess that you could also have uboot on eMMC/SD and point extlinux to rootfs on the NVMe drive. I'm not an expert nor a dev, but I believe this is accurate.
