I seriously wish I had a phone that was just a linux machine. That can already do all the things I want it to do. Then I'd have a brick phone with eternal battery life for that single functionality.

But as it is that would not have mobile internet, which is pretty much a must. So you'd have to get a sim card for that, and then you might as well have the phone functionality on that device. And you just (re)invented Linux phones.

My point is that I hate what phones are and I wish it was just a small touchscreen PC without all this locked down bullshit.
