I'm excited for this handheld. I'm planning on picking one up just to support more foss based hardware.

Do they have a price announced yet? I love the idea, just unsure how well they can compete with others on price
It's $500 for a 7840u. It's not bad IMO. https://neo.manjaro.org/#specs
I’d agree, that’s fantastic to hear!
Yes! More Linux handhelds!
I really don't know why you added a 5 year old abandoned distro to your title.
My understanding is that they are making new version based on opengamepadUI. I made a video playing around with it on a steamdeck running EndeavorOS with opengamepadUI installed as a DE. It's very alpha so IDK how it's going to work for them. https://makertube.net/w/1JtXgbupmgcjJbRD4o7Wpa
