Awesome to see more first party Linux support, especially in a tablet form factor.

It's slightly disappointing to see a Mediatek SOC though, they've always had worse support for custom ROMs and kernels. Probably due to the cost comparable of Qualcomm chips.

@exu @poVoq yeah... The MediaTek SoC was also the "dead" of the Gemini PDA x.x a really lovely device but fixed to a certain kernel b/c of MediaTek
