Thanks for the links. Gearbest seems to only be selling the device with
Windows 10, not Ubuntu. Do you know if the bootloader supports booting into
and installing another OS from a USB drive?
yea, usb free wifi needed. thats only thing but for bios to my
knowledge. there some experimental risky thing for "disabling" intel ME.
gearbest do a flash sale now and then. best price was £340. I would get
an account add it to favourites and wait for promo emails ;)
This device looks neat,

and once Flidas is released one could migrate from Ubuntu 16.04. I would
expect that as USB dongle will be needed for WiFi. What else would it take to
liberate this device?
