MNT #PocketReform count at #FrOSCon - I saw at least two of them in the exhibition area! Did not have a chance to chat to their owners, but I did enthuse about them to a bystander πŸ™‚

Received my MNT Pocket Reform (RK3588, 32GB/256GB) today, and it's lovely. Thanks @mntmn for creating such unusual products!

Feel free to ask me anything (well, newbie questions preferably, as I just got it today :-) )

Today: set up two Bird Buddies in the garden (feeder and bath); got GNOME set up on the #PocketReform; played a couple of levels of #DOOMTheDarkAges (which is great); played through all of Spilled (a wonderful little game); watched the penultimate #DoctorWho episode. Decent day of unwinding πŸ‘πŸ»

MNT Pocket Reform: a (literal) field test A trip to an outdoors event on a Bank Holiday, with some on-the-go blogging in between tasty treats. Here’s how the Pocket Reform worked for me.

New blog post: a follow-up to my earlier story about the MNT #PocketReform, with a real-world field test in an actual field (well, pretty close). How else would I choose to spend a holiday Monday? #Blaugust2024 #100DaysToOffload
