I should've saved a link to that post, it probably was pretty old.
I don't have other Pine products, and unfortunately don't foresee that I'll be in the market for any. I have a large surplus of devices except for one more Pinebook Pro.
I get not wanting to have unused stuff but I recently decided to pick up a couple of 128GB modules to finally swap out in my PBP from 64GB for about $25/ea via "Best Offer" on fleaBay. Originally, I was going to do the M.2 SSD thing (I got the adapter) but decided it wasn't worth it as even running an OS is mostly fine as far as speed goes. Well, to me at least. It might be too sluggish to regularly run an OS via micro SD for some folks. Long-term reliability is an issue any wrt these memory cards anyway.
You don't foresee using these modules on another SBC? I plan on using my mine for some set-top boxes as I eventually move away from Android TV and Roku. I want more control and transparency and less creepy advertisement-based corporate spying machines. 'Not sure which boards, maybe Hardkernel. Too bad they all use barrel jacks rather than USB-C but as long as they are stationary it's fine.
