With the Framework team having figured out how to make an easily replaceble touchscreen that accepts pen input, it would be interesting for the next step to be a surface pro-styled device. It’s no secret that the surface pro has been in a steady decline over the years, with competing products being lacking and they moving to ARM for the consumer product, locking x86 behind an insanely expensive business model, an offer from framework with their focus on repairability would be very well received. I think the detachable 2-in-1 format would greatly benefit from the expansion cards, given how limited the connectivity is in products that share this form factor, also since it would be an entirely new product it could be a way to experiment with LPCAMM2 for the memory which, due to its characteristics (form factor, power efficiency and speed) lends itself well for a product like this. Now, of course the price would be high in comparison to the laptop 13 for example, but personally I would really like to see something like this. What do y’all think? would you be interested in seeing a product of this nature from Framework?
