Are you wearing cargo trousers or something? I have a Nexus 7 (2013) and I doubt I could fit that in any of my pockets, including large coat pockets. And it's thin, this will undoubtedly be thicker too.

I could fit my daughter's 8" tablet including the protective case in my jacket pocket. It surprised me, it did not seem a particularly large pocket. I suggest you try it instead of merely assuming.

And as the reward of $2M goal. We will upgrade the original 5V 2.5A changer to the PD 2.0 Quick change protocol.It's power will be 25W-30W. So you may only need one hour or a little more can full changed the battery.
While not as nice as maxing out on the RAM capability of the Atom CPU, that would be a nice addition. They are at $1,964,533 right now, so $2M isn't too far fetched.
982% of the campain target right now – hopefully, this won't have too many negative consequences. No one scales perfectly.

Um... did you not see that pic with the guy with his hands on the keyboard?

Not that it probably matters, but I don't think those are a guy's hands.

I'd like to know why some pictures the keyboard looks grey, and others black. I'd prefer the lighter color, but looks like there's no choice offered.

My guess is that the pictures that are not rendered are all non-working dummy devices with the screen content shopped in (the mac has some mirroring going on in the glas, the gpd does not).
If you look closely, you'll see that the grey ones aren't even labeled at all. Also, they announced updated keyboard layouts in a later update, so they likely just 3d printed some dummy caps and had only grey filament lying around. :)
They are showing the first(?) 'real-ish' prototype in the latest update and it's screen seems to be held together by adhesive tape on one of the pictures.

Edit: I've persuaded the server to give me a slightly bigger version of the prototype pictures.

Good catch.

I'd love to know just how big/small are some of you guys hands truly are because this want for a smaller device and/or something that seemingly doesn't fit into your pockets seems to be... well, odd.

Most men's pockets are somewhat standard and I used to carry my Nexus 7 in my back pockets without issue. Weirded me out the first time I did it - just sorta didn't think about it and in it went.

I'll have to admit... I totally lol'd in the office. Now... how to explain this one without being a HR violation.

My wife's fingernail polish is almost that color.
