Cool! Maybe I'll pick it up if it doesn't suck with Linux.

Next, make one with a nipple and mouse buttons and I'll buy another. My Thinkpad is getting old.

I hope they release a keyboard with a nipple, preferably blank so I can add a dvorak layout to it

I had a blank keyboard at one point at work, it was fine until my brain completely forgot about all the letters were, I couldn't remember for like 10 minutes.

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I can't do a true blank either, I have to buy keyboard stickers

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd buy that so fast it would make their head spin.

And yeah, Dvorak users unite!!

if it doesn't suck with linux.

It supports Ubuntu and Fedora.

I meant the general experience of a touchscreen on Linux with rotation and whatnot. Do applications work nicely with it or will I generally end up avoiding the touchscreen and "tablet" mode?

I don't know. I know it's been getting way better.
