What will you do after you bought the PineTab?
#18
Mine will be used primarily for light web browsing (links2 and maybe ff), videos (mpv; though storage is an issue) and

emacs:
- PIM: email (mu4e), contacts (bbdb or org), calendar (org), notes (org-brain)
- RSS (elfeed)
- PDF (pdf-tools)
- epub (nov.el)
- education (org-drill; this undecided. possibly anki outside of emacs, but definitely org-drill for editing decks)
- prose and structured writing (mostly org)

Heavy use of emacs will require keyboard, sadly.

I'm currently thinking PostmarketOS+Plasma Mobile but I want to experience UBTouch, which we are told is shipping on the device, before settling. I mean, 2GB RAM is extremely limiting when considering graphical-mode applications, very very few of which are memory optimized.
