A friend of mine made me aware of
<a href="https://pyra-handheld.com/boards/pages/pyra/">The Pyra</a>, a
handheld computer which will be delivered with Debian preinstalled.  I
would love to get one of those for my birthday. :)</p>

<p>The machine is a complete ARM-based PC with micro HDMI, SATA, USB
plugs and many others connectors, and include a full keyboard and a 5"
LCD touch screen.  The 6000mAh battery is claimed to provide a whole
day of battery life time, but I have not seen any independent tests
confirming this.  The vendor is still collecting preorders, and the
last I heard last night was that 22 more orders were needed before
production started.</p>

<p>As far as I know, this is the first handheld preinstalled with
Debian.  Please let me know if you know of any others.  Is it the
first computer being sold with Debian preinstalled?</p>
