It’s gonna be a while before RISC-V (and the accompanying software) is ready for consumers, but this is a great step towards that goal. Framework is the perfect development plattform, due to the modularity.

I’m super excited about this, didn’t expect it to happen so soon.

Yea, it was something about wireless. I believe it affected 2.4 GHz and BT, was easily fixed with some udev rules though.

I have the BT version which worked great with the workaround, but it’s not needed anymore, at least on EndeavourOS (Arch)

Just wanna jump in here an md mention sideberry as an alternativ, does the same thing, but better imo and has tons of customisation options

This should be possible to build with sway (and presumably any other tiling wm). Now that I’m thinking about it, you can probably also do this with gnome and a couple of extensions.

The status bar can be achieved with waybar in sway, which can be easily configured the way you described. In gnome there is an extension to rearrange the top panel.

I’m thinking of opening each window in a new workspace, can be configured for sway and gnome has an extension for that.

For the tabs we can use waybar with sworkstyle for each wroskpace, requires some configuration. For gnome I’d just use one of the many task bar extensions.

I can’t immediately think of a solution for the searchable list, but I’d be surprised if it didn’t exist for both systems.

This is a research paper, so it’s gonna be at least a couple of years until ot could be seen in products. However the battery uses hydrogen, it’s effectively an alternative to fuel cells, so the use case would be in vehicles rather than yout phone. That being said, hydrogen fuel infrastructure is almost non-existent right now.
