Hi.
Is there an invoice inside the box of your GEMINI you received ? Because it is a gift to a friend and I will resend to him. If there is an invoice I will have to open and remove invoice. Thank you again

Mine doesn't. Don't know about the others.

Got mine 3 days ago and am typing this reply with it.

Flashed rooted image immediately after I got the unit, and used magisk as root manager as recommended by Planet C.

Then flashed TWRP and Installed systemless xposed framework from there.

Later installed the force immersive module to get rid of the status bar and soft keys.

This device is smaller than I imagined in a good way and I learnt to touch type on the keyboard in 3 days.

This device is just amazing, so please be patient guys, it's well worth the wait.

Pretty remarkable gadget, isn't it.

As I was setting mine up -- an ongoing process, but I'm spending all my time in Linux -- I glanced over at my expensive and much larger ThinkPad that's just a few years old and realized the Gemini is much more of a computer than the ThinkPad is. (Though I would give a great deal for Gemini to have a TrackPoint mouse nubbins.) This thing is one cool little 'puter.

A must have gadget. Design wise even better than my nmb12 in some aspect, like the 2nd USBC port, decent amount of key travel, and the best part it's pocketable. It's one of a kind.
I know the android with gms is not FOSS but I've chose convenience over freedom. Hope someday I could be capable of making the leap.

Just got an email from a local delivery company informing me that my unit has shipped.

Gosh I've been waiting this for way too long.

Order #21xx , non-EU backer.

Is it possible to get a ratio of orders for Geminis against accessory orders?

Yes, about 62% are geminis

Check out the url, did some updates

Thanks @Varti

Was just warming up for taking "computational notes" on my future gemini which IMO is the ideal device to take such interactive notes.

Reasons:
 - pocketable
 - slick and beautiful design
 - 18:9 "widescreen"
 - physical keyboard for simple scripting
 - touch screen to help explore data
 - GNU/Linux goodies to help process data
 - 4g support to keep you always online

Dream device indeed.
