    glad to see this info getting slated on an official channel.

    I appreciate the fundamentals of the effort, and I also wonder whether this will trigger an IP strategy response from the major manufacturers.

    It seems like a complementary FOSS chipset project would go a long way. I look at Linux native hardware like the SteamDeck and wonder, what hardware is lacking from this stack to make this device a phone?

      Hopefully the upcoming Steam Frame, which will run SteamOS (Arch) for ARM, will also help things along.

        hmmmm, sounds like a mix of open and closed source, but a good starting point.

        Good point, and it will have high speed wireless.

        There must be a 4g antenna chipset that is Linux native for industrial use.
