I've been following comet on their discord. I'm really on the fence about the project... For everything good they share and speak to, there is also far too much flexibility in the project. I mean that by saying it seems too late in the game for them to be considering major hardware changes regardless how much I would welcome them (hardware switches for instance). They're already planning on the second model as well... And a SBC... Just feels like they're going to be spreading themselves thin. I genuinely hope I'm super wrong... It looks like quite the performative device for 159usd
