The Pyra - handheld computer with Debian preinstalled
4th May 2016
A friend of mine made me aware of
The Pyra, a
handheld computer which will be delivered with Debian preinstalled. I
would love to get one of those for my birthday. :)
The machine is a complete ARM-based PC with micro HDMI, SATA, USB plugs and many others connectors, and include a full keyboard and a 5" LCD touch screen. The 6000mAh battery is claimed to provide a whole day of battery life time, but I have not seen any independent tests confirming this. The vendor is still collecting preorders, and the last I heard last night was that 22 more orders were needed before production started.
As far as I know, this is the first handheld preinstalled with Debian. Please let me know if you know of any others. Is it the first computer being sold with Debian preinstalled?
