How does cooling get implemented? I can only really think of a Pi500 as a similar concept, except that the Pi is (likely) much less power intense. If they're using a Ryzen 300, wouldn't heat dissapation become an issue? The keyboard looks too thin for extensive heat transfer. I guess they could use a undervolted Ryzen 300 but it just seems like there is too much power delivery needs inside such a small frame.

specs are unclear, but given the size, TDP and optional battery, it almost certainly has a laptop-scale fan and heat sink. Modern fans are pretty quiet, nearly silent at idle, so it's not an issue.

there was a teardown showing the fan. very typical laptop fan

One of the YouTubers had open it up, it uses laptop fans, it itself, is basically a squished laptop.

I’m excited though. I always liked that form factor. Add some good HUD glasses and a mouse and were sailing free!
