In no way could my Android phone with Termux serve as substitute for my Linux desktop/laptop, but it is handy.

Presumably the only real solution is using desktop Linux on a device, rather than Android.

Is the GDP Pocket [ https://medium.com/@tomac/qpd-pocket-7-the-return-of-the-hac... ] included under your category of sweat-inducing devices? It looks handy, and even seems to have some sort of pointing/TrackPoint-like nub. I haven't used or even seen one in real life, but I've heard good things.

I'm not convinced there's anything that will replace an X-series ThinkPad. Non-phone devices that fit in our pocket and run Linux are rather appealling, and I'd love to have one, but I still don't imagine it could really oust my ThinkPad for most purposes. I need at least the X-series sized screen for most of what of I do.



I'm leaning much that way myself.
