Guess I’ll really have to work for being patient… Or I’ll just break down and buy it anyway at some point.

Same! Waiting for it not to cost 80$ Canadian… If it goes on sale for half, I’ll buy it I guess

Miraculously it kinda worked for the fall.

Miles Tek does that in the later books, IIRC. strap a lasgun to a shield generator, instant pseudo nuclear bomb.

Hmm, I’m in Canada, but that could be worked out. I guess the other question is if it’s compatible with the networks here?

Motorola One Action. Close to stock Android, good enough for what i need, and it was cheap. That last one was the real reason to get it, if I’m honest…

Edit: Seeing mentions of the fairphone, i looked into that but when i needed a new phone, the existing version (2?) Was quite outdated. It’s a contender for my next phone, though. Hopefully not for a while.
