I bought one as soon as they were released, as well as the keyboard case. It never really worked correctly, but I loved the concept and wish they would have succeeded.

I know it's a niche product, but I'd love a pocket sized Debian device with cellular, decent standby time, and a physical keyboard. Anything out there I should look in to? I've tried to make various GPD devices work, but they are too big, and the standby time isn't great.

yes they're called netbooks and x86 tablets but you may need a time machine back to 2015 to get one.

GPD makes decent small devices, that can be equipped with cellular, and work fine with Debian. So no need for a time-travel here. :)
