I also signed up due to interest in the Pinebook Pro. I'm ready to make pre-order right now.

Hm, but what about PineTab? Photos clearly show it on PineTab's keyboard Smile
Saw these wonderful machines at fosdem. Ready to order the Pro as well. Smile Looking forward to the announcement, when it will be sold.
Will be possible for anew Lapbook Pro to replace screen to higher DPI?

If possible I'd like to see the EC25-AF variant used because it supports band 71 which is important for getting full access to T-Mobile US's LTE network (there are large areas of their network that only have service on band 71). That variant also apparently supports Verizon's LTE network (which the -A variant does not) which would significantly increase the potential customer base for the device (as Verizon is the largest carrier in the US). Thanks Smile

Thanks for the useful info, will explore with Quectel on the EC25-AF variant. If the cost price same as EC25-A, for sure will consider EC25-AF.

May we assume that the modem, whichever the phone turns out to ship with, will be user-replaceable?  That would be a very valuable feature for world travelers unless you opt for the EC25-G.
Will the Quectel modem be user replaceable if not it is going to be impossible for us people from Europe to use the Pinephone because it lacks the most important LTE and 3G bands.Is the modem going to be soldered or not?
Well, looks like the Pinebook Pro generates a lot of interest. In fact, I'd order it asap myself, too. :-)
Very curious about the cube. Looks like it has tf slot for local recording. What resolutions/frame rates/bit rates will it support to the card and over IP?

The mSD slot is for the OS. I am sure you'll be able to plug in a USB drive or thumb-stick to record local video / store pictures locally. As for resolutions, 1080p@60 and 4K@30 [and lower] - but obviously it all depends on software, and we need devs to get their hands on dev units first.
You can find me on IRC, Discord and Twitter

The PinePhone single charge run time is my concern, able to use the pinephone for a full day is extremely challenging.

I'm curious whether you can yet say anything about the battery run times of the Pinebook Pro.
