lets say someone made an OSHW touch device running linux that's intended to fit in your pant/dress/jacket/handbag pocket. what would be the maximum display size (diagonal, inches) you would tolerate? bonus if you like rabbitholes like this: maximum thickness and weight?

@theawesomerandomness Wow, FOSS and OSHW touch device.
If the device has the following features, I am willing to make sacrifices in thickness, weight and price.
A slot for microSD card and nano-SIM, Microphone, Speaker, Audio Jack, Camera, WiFi & Bluetooth, USB-C, long battery life.
Privacy switch for LTE/GNSS, WiFi, Bluetooth, Microphone, Speaker, Camera.

so the "problem" is I want all the combos, or rather never know which combo I want.

I suspect this would be a big engineering challenge, but what if the mainboard were a separate thing that could:

- snap onto the touchscreen to make a tablet
- snap onto the keyboard to connect to an external monitor as a desktop
- snap onto the keyboard, then attach to the touchscreen with a hinge somehow to make a laptop that protects the screen while travelling
