It runs Android 9, but they promise soon to release a Linux port so you can dual-boot like the Gemini PDA. I'm running DOSBox from Play Store but having some problem with keyboard mapping at the moment. With fewer keys than a standard keyboard, it uses a function key to map many of the lesser used punctuation characters, and DOSBox doesn't grok them. Hopefully get that ironed out soon so a side-by-side can be posted!

I am familiar with the device and followed it's protracted birth over many years, and I thought there Android and Win10 versions, had not heard about a Linux version coming, that should be interesting.

I also didn't know you could run DOSBox on it, that makes it more interesting.

Now if only I can find my original exotic CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXECT.BAT files to configure QEMM, PC-Kwik Cache, Fansi-Console and 4DOS shell. Those were the DOS days...
