To Germany? Good. I can support it when I have the actual hardware available. Currently (as of right now) it won't function as there is no cardKB-like keyboard input driver implemented which would be the precondition for any interaction, as the PICOmputer does not have a touch screen (or does the display have a GT911 or other touch controller??).

I am on the road right now but iirc the picomputer does only have 4MB flash. May be a tight fit. The TFT tracksenger may be a better fit. 8 MB is the min for an integrated device I would think.

@mverch I have a picomputer prototype I can send you. Assuming @bobricius doesn't have a newer revision :-)

I ma not sure but on product page is: ESP32-S3R2 2MB Quad SPI PSRAM 8MB Quad SPI Flash Also I have Picomputer based on Wroom module which is more flexible with flash/psram options

That's also what I read on the ALI-Express page for the Banana-Pi. Should be fine.

This is looking great. I've been running it on hardware on and off for a few weeks and even in the current state I'd say it's made the T-Deck far more usable (as a standalone device) than it was before. I'm very impressed with the progress so far and look forward to seeing the improvements.

Willing volunteer if you need anything tested or want specific feedback.
