Howdy all, The free-software handheld product from Purism, the Librem 5, is on track for delivery again after an unexpected resolution of the heat issues they were experiencing. […] So a lot of research was made, and our development team started evaluating the i.MXM8 Mini to see if it could be used within our requirements–free software only, no binary blobs, mainline based software stacks. And then the month of February began, and something else unexpectedly happened: NXP released a new software stack for our first CPU choice, the i.MX 8M–and all of the power consumption and heating issues suddenly disappeared! <URL:https://puri.sm/posts/massive-progress-exact-cpu-selected-minor-shipping-adjustment/> The post also gives a good progress update and a video of a hardware prototype. Looking forward to receiving a handheld designed with modern hardware, entirely free drivers, and full communication features! -- \ “Faith, n.
