    The idea is great of a Linux-powered DAP is brilliant; if there’s one letdown with 80% of all DAPs, it’s the clunky software and UX. However, the device itself looks ghastly IMO.

    Edit: I thought the software could be customised due to it being Linux and whatnot. It doesn’t seem to be.

      What are you talking about that thing looks adorable?

      Would look cute dangling from a bag/purse or something.

      Honestly my big hangup is trying to justify a dedicated player when a decent DAC can be had for as cheap as like $50

        I think it looks way too childish, even for one of those retro handhelds. I just don’t get why it needs to look like a Game Boy (which it doesn’t really, if anything it looks like a Pokémon Mini).

        Maybe I’m just too much of a manly man to enjoy such things, idk.

          I get it. Ive never like how everything now (cars, houses, devices) are ALL: SILVER. SILVER. SILVER. BLACK. SILVER.

          I’ll go back to beige any day.

          Looks its not my fault you neither want to be cute nor whimsical, lol.

          If I had a use for it I’d try to get one color matched to some good nail polish, maybe print out a custom case to match it with my portable meshcore node too.
