Absolutely amazing!

I hope you keep at it and we'll be able to get our hands on one some day. It's so ridiculously cool!

Currently I'm waiting on a ClockworkPi devterm as my new laptop replacement.

I'd love to replace my phone with a pockit, with a small physical keyboard module, and replace my laptop with a megapockit with a huge backplane and a big modular keyboard.

The possbilities! Thanks again for making something so cool and inspirational!

Look at that... the human mind is phenomenal.

We're not all ultra-skilled, detail-oriented electrical engineers. So why does every person have to go through (a tiring rite of passage of) wiring, soldering, debugging, coding from scratch -- instead of using the same creative mind and effort to come up with ideas, and actually play with their implementation?

I'm not primarily a developer, but it's easy to see how much the software world mushroomed through DRY, modularity, etc. In some ways, Pockit is an effort to do the same for electronics prototyping.
