Kickstarter device: Mecha Comet

I’m not usually one to get excited over things like this, but in case this ever materializes

a SFOS port would be really nice.

Some vibes of The other Half with that plugin idea.

Looks good, sounds good! Any information where to buy + price? Can’t find information on the linked homepage.

It’s not a phone and is expected to start at $160 on kickstarter.
Google “Mecha comet” and you’ll find plenty to look at. I say it’s not a phone but it can be made into a phone…interesting.

I tried looking at their kickstarter page via Sailfish Browser, but it kept crashing back to its cover {{{sigh}}}

Here is the Pilot Programm wich should grant early access to the Mecha Comet https://mecha.so/pilot. Maybe one of the Porters could apply there.

They also have a Discord Server and a Community Forum

There could also be an effort to port the other way around.

As their Linux-based OS brings their own UI toolkit and runtime, maybe it can be made to work on SFOS so it can run their apps.

or other way round, to port SFOS for this hardware to have better choices for the Sailfish hardware dilemma.
