Lets create the PineCom

No. 
Not now.
You'll be all over the place with the hardware and nowhere with the software. 
Develop modules for Pinephone and use to the maximum it's communication opportunities (pogo pins, I2C, etc).
Why people would buy a hardware that needs more specialized software when the Pinephone is not usable as a daily driver?
Wait and learn from the previous experience and than apply that knowledge to a future, more developed product.
If you guys are doing this as a competition to Popcorn Computer, better not. You'll have your time and for sure you'll deliver a more robust product.

Pine64 doesn't develop a lot of software anyways. So it'd kinda not change anything. The question is, would it divert some volunteers' efforts? If it doesn't overlap massively with some existing product I doubt it.

I know they are not involved in the software developing process, more like donating for it. The idea is: you can go wild on the hardware side if you wish, but some people might like to open their camera other way than tipping commands in terminal (if you can access it in the first place...)
