those of us who previously purchased the PinePhone have been waiting expectantly to be able to purchase the USB-C Dongle that shipped with the latest community edition.
in the latest blog, devs announced yet another community edition, but we are still unable to purchase the USB-C Dongle. as of today there is still no option on the Pine64 store. do we need to purchase an entirely new phone to be able to receive it?
further, a couple months ago we were told we would be able to purchase different branded phone backs. I would love to purchase the Manjaro edition back, as I'm using Manjaro on my Pinephone 24/7, but there's no option to independently purchase them at all.
I don't mind that only a month after receiving my device a twice as good device came out. That device (or what ever revision there is) will likely just be my next purchase in the future when I feel the itch to "upgrade" again. I can still enjoy my current device. what I do mind is that we were promised we wouldn't be forgotten, but it seems as though we are.
