For the past ten months, I've been using my PinePhone as a "daily driver." By
which, I mean it's been in my pocket everywhere I go, and it's the device I use
to make phone calls. Depending on your familiarity with the PinePhone (or the
state of "Linux Phones" more generally) this statement is either delirious, or
vapid (why should I care that you use a "smart" phone just like the rest of us?)
Don't be mistaken: the PinePhone is usable as a little cellular-capable PDA, and
it's in a league of its own. This article is my attempt to document my
experiences and rationale for wanting to use one, as well as my thoughts on
mobile Linux in general.
