Can't say I disagree. I worked on a few large websites, and it was a constant battle trying to prevent marketing folks from forcing us to add in more analytics and 'personalization'/tracking tools. It got to the point where I had to make a presentation to show them how we could save 80% of the page load time just by reducing the number of trackers/systems that integrated with the site, and thus get more satisfied visitors (and better SEO ranking), but nobody bought it. They wanted that precious marketing data :(

Thank you for reviewing the CutiePi tablet Jeff, I've been looking forward to receiving my Kickstarter for quite some time. The upgrades to the CM4 module made it a much more worthwhile project indeed. I had high hopes regarding the custom interface they were building, and you've satisfied my curiosity about that. I picked up the RasPad, and while it's very satisfying, it is a bit large. That being said, Linux on the tablet has finally arrived. Ubuntu 20.10 with a couple of Gnome tweaks is a dream on the RasPad. Ubuntu Budgie 21.04 is pretty solid as well.

Thanks Jeff! Great review. I've been watching this project since before the kickstarter was launched, and am very keen to see it finally ship. I love the idea of a repairable, open-source tablet that leverages the Raspberry pi community. It is certainly difficult to compare to other consumer tablets since it is thicker, heavier, slower and buggier than other tablets at the same price point. But the fully open hardware and software ecosystem is a huge advantage that those other tablets can't match : I have a few older tablets that would still be perfectly useful today if they still had software support, but sadly they do not. One gotcha is that there are no PGIOs available, so this does't quite fill the same niche as the RasPad. I'm not sure yet if I will buy one of these, but I feel like it wouldn't take too much to sway the balance in favour of the cutiepi. If version 2 be a bit lighter while rocking a 9 inch 1920x1200 display and staying the same price, then i'd be in! I guess the main issue is that a low-volume, niche manufacturer can't compete on price with the big players. I feel like Raspberry Pi could release their own product in this space that could close that gap. In the meantime, I just might buy one of these in the new year - it would still fill some niches that my Pi4+nexdock does not, and I'm sick of buying hardware that loses software support in just a few short years.

I’d like to “piggyback” on your idea by saying that for anyone who DOESNT MIND a 50%-100% GIRTH INCREASE TO THIS, they could EASILY design EITHER: 1. An entirely new shell to incorporate the following….. 2. A “piggyback” module to incorporate the following… The added girth/thickness could EASILY enclose another 20,000+ MAH of FLAT LIPO BATTERIES - Added heat dissipation - And added WHATEVER - I’m surprised someone hasn’t already drawn options up for this. The unit looks to be about 1/2” thick as it is… maybe 3/8”…. So who would REALLY CARE if it even jumped to 1 FULL INCH…? I wouldn’t if I could expand this things abilities by 4-5X… Plus, many people PREFER a more substantial device that will remind them to handle it with the respect it deserves. I don’t have the ability to CREATE any of this, but I do have the LiPo cells and the knowledge that this can VERY EASILY be done… so I figured I’d share, hoping someone picks it up and runs with it.

Jeff Thank you I have been looking for this kind of device for data modes in ham radio. If you have one please test it with an 8G compute module when you get time.

I put in an 8GB CM4 Lite, and also tested an eMMC module and both worked okay. What kind of ham work do you do? I did check that RTL-SDR works, but didn't go too deep with it.

a shame it doesn't have a ethernet port, could be great for people diagnosing networks or fixing stuff on their home speakers in the back are a fail, we need those at the front, sides perhaps, but one in the back no, there is space to put them inside the carrying handle stand part, is empty, two speakers there facing front looks so doable now that you mention open source, well, if cm5 uses the same connector, theoretically would be just remove cm4 and put cpu5, perhaps?

Can you take the handle off

Technically, yes. It would still have those two 'ears' sticking up on the top corners but you would get a smaller overall footprint. There are no wires or anything else going into the handle.

If it had an IO port this could be a cool command tablet or what a Pip boy is supposed to be, a portable terminal.

I really dig this thing, would be really handy around the shop with that handle/stand. I kluged together a Pi4 with an old laptop display, which required a DC/DC and an HDMI->TTL display driver from eBay, but after all that I don't even have touch and I need a keyboard (dust magnet) to go with it. I'd likely pair it to my Ikea bluetooth speaker rather than using the internal speaker.

I don’t know how anyone can ship hardware right now. My hardware business is on life support because I can’t get components. The least available part in my BOM is an STM32F103. Impossible to get unless you’re willing to take a risk on counterfeit silicon. My morals won’t allow me to do that. So my hat is off to them for finding a way to ship right now.

They've definitely been hit by the delays but they also started sourcing components over a year ago (probably some even earlier than that!). for new hardware projects I'd pad any time estimate by a year or two. Sadly, that's been killing many interesting projects lately because you can't spin up a product then sit on it for a year!

Nice product actually. "Shutup and Take my money" meme fits here. But a lot of improvements is possible in terms of design choices.

I forgot I watched this video back when Jeff released it! haha. I've been wanting to have a tablet again, and while an iPad is great, I like tinkering with stuff like Raspberry Pi 4s etc and this project is damn cool. Has anyone tried running FreeBSD on this tablet? I think it'd run quite well since FreeBSD runs well on a full-sized Raspberry Pi 4.

8:48 720p video on 720p display... works well but like.. not on full screen. it will show the 720p video on like half the 720p display? what is wrong with you? and no, it doesn't seem to work well. It looks laggy, even in the demo.
