Not a good news for the original PP. I personally don't use Mobian and I just use megi's kernel, but I understand their concerns.

Obviously I am comparing both the PP and the PBP with the PPP. The two cheaper devices show that it would have been perfectly possible to make a sub 300$ device that is a functional equivalent of the PPP.

More colors on a tiny low resolution mobile screen is another one of these useless premium features they added to justify the massive price hike.
