About
Pocket P.C.
People should be able to use their devices as they want. This is the premise that we based Pocket P.C. on when we began development of this device. This is the device we always dreamed of owning that's why we made it. In today's technology lanscape, there are plenty of Android and iOS devices however Linux-based are largely ignored.
Portable
Technologies
We have chosen known-good technologies to ensure a successful production run and solid product that you will want to use everyday.
Productivity
A reprogrammable 59 button silicone keyboard w/ RGB backlight that enables you to quickly and easily type commands and text anywhere at anytime.
High Quality
We have chosen components originally designed for use in cellphones and proven in that are in use today.
Durable
The enclosure is made from ABS plastic which has a high tensile strength and is very resistant to physical impacts.
Security
Shipping with an OS secured with best known practices and with full-control over the device OS, you can ensure that expectation matches reality when it comes to security.
Secure Element
An Infineon OPTIGA TRUST M IC with: ECC NIST P256/P384, SHA-256, TRNG, DRNG, RSA® 1024/2048 and 4.5K of user memory. This chip can store your private keys securely, as well as generate true random numbers.

From The Designers
of Proven Hardware
Source Part's Kettlepop is the foundation which the initial prototype of Pocket P.C. was based on. Kettlepop is in-use today controlling the engines of competition race cars in Italy.
Long Range Communication
Pocket P.C. w/ LoRa packs a LoRa radio capable of low power, long range communication ideal for IoT developers. Build custom LoRa peer-to-peer applications or build apps for the rapidly growing worldwide LoRaWAN community. With access to LoRaWAN at your finger tips you can prototype and build cutting edge applications faster than ever. Ready to operate on frequencies EU868, US915, and AS923.
Pocket P.C. w/ LoRa is the tool for developing LoRa solutions on the go.
Features
We dreamed up a list of must-have features for Pocket P.C. and designed them right into the product.

FAQ
If you have any questions not answered below, we welcome you to ask them in our community.
We are excited and looking forward to hearing your feedback.
When will mine ship?
Our goal is to ship production units by August 2020. Since our operations are in Shenzhen, China, we have considered in this goal that most factories are at or near capacity during the holiday season until the New Year. Additionally, we considered the Chinese New Year that will lead to a complete shutdown for most factories for a few weeks around the beginning of February. With all this considered and based on our experience producing products in high volume, we believe our goal is attainable as long as there aren't any unforeseen setbacks. We promise to be as transparent as possible and will regularly post updates in our community forum.
Why doesn't Pocket P.C. have X or Y feature?
We designed Pocket P.C. to be as reliable as possible while being simple to manufacture. We are open to hearing your suggestions on what the final unit must have. If there is a general consensus that something is missing and must be added we will consider it. You are welcome to join our community and let us know what you think!
At what stage is product development?
We have completed sourcing of all the components and have finished the electrical design. We have already produced multiple PCB prototypes and have finished the keyboard firmware. After we reach our crowdfunding goal, we will give the green light to our manufacturers to produce the tooling for the enclosure.
