Currently my Pinephone is in a box in Zurich where it save from thieves. But I don’t know if it is worth for thieves to steal it. I did not use my Pinephone for a single day, although i dealed with it for many years.
And know I found that the Pinephone is almost daily driver ready for writers after many years. Look at the wonderful possibilities the Pinephone has for writers:

There are other devices availble for office mobile, but what is special about the Pinephone is it’s hard wired keyboard. This makes it to a robust device.
The Pinephone keyboard has issues, but one can work with. And the issues are known. And eventually someone makes an updated version.
There are 121 pages in the Pine64 forum about the Pinephone since 10-17-2019, 05:48 PM. This makes the Pinephone from a bad device to a good device.
There are other devices out there which are better for the one or the other application. But we need to build these device first. And who wants to do that now that the Pinephone has become a good device for writers, and there is no need to build a new device?
If you care for a special Pinephone distro and you are a skilled coder, please put Word 97 in your app store if this is possible. Jackfish has put the instruction here:

I will not use Word 97 on my Pinephone. It easier for me personally to use it only with Abiword and change to another device which offers LibreOffice without issues. But Word 97 in an app store of the Pinephone would be a reason to come back to the Pinephone.
With the Pinephone keyboard and Word 97 the Pinephone is a good daily driver for writers, and also worth stealing for the thieves in Zurich. Since even if you have a lot of money it is difficult to find a better device for writers which makes the Pinephone worth stealing.
