   the following mods have made me use my MNT Pocket Reform daily again:
   —RCM4 with A311D processor (speeed, also runs cooler than i.MX8MP)
   —1TB NVMe (encrypted), boots quickly
   —AsiaRF WiFi card with MT7612U chipset and dual Ezurio FlexPIFA antennas
   Feels comfy, fast, always online :3

     @RyukaZou yes, it already works, just needs a bit more testing

     @haupz that is correct. for RK3588 there will be another solution later that will free up the WWAN slot. i designed in a wifi/bt fpc connector with usb, sdio, uart signals, and a custom wifi/bt board can then be mounted instead of the headphone board (and will retain the headphone connector and switch)

     @mntmn Yes please. Just so that I understand: the WiFi card goes into the slot on the motherboard, and can't coexist with an LTE modem?

     @chiefgyk3d @defcon it's coming. it's worked in first testing and the adapters are in production, around 3-4 weeks to go

     @mntmn any word on the RK3588 for the MNT Pocket Reform? I'd love to get a RK3588 board that can do Wifi, Cellular Data, and still have a headphone connector. I'm thinking of when I was at @defcon and wanting to watch some talks over Twitch or Youtube when I didn't grab a space. Since I don't always trust public Wifi outside of my Qubes OS laptop.
