This uses the CM3 Lite. According to a blog post in January, 2019 on the release of the CM3+, the “legacy” CM1, CM3 and CM3 Lite products are considered “not recommended for new designs”.

Re: CutiePi – All-in-one Raspberry Pi tablet
#12I would literally kill for a tablet that did nothing but very very very very good active pen stuff. I bought a Dell latitude tablet and while it's good enough (one note is also just good enough) that I don't regret it I've been wondering whether I could put together something that just focused on digitization using something a pi. are there any plans to support an active pen?

hey, thanks for the comment, we know that CM3 and CM3+ are pin-to-pin compatible, so will switch to it when launch! :-)
(finger crossed for CM4?)

Make sure you don't get caught though :P

I'm curious about this part. Their Github only has their website, hardware design, firmware and drivers: https://github.com/cutiepi-io/

I've heard good things about https://remarkable.com
Re: CutiePi – All-in-one Raspberry Pi tablet
#17Looks very cool, for sure.
But am I the only one who is confused why they created a main board instead of just using a Pi model B? Most of the things on their board (usb, hdmi, wifi, Bluetooth, card slot, etc) are already there in a Pi. Especially since the boards are about $90 each...

I'd say the form factor. The raspberry pi is too thick for a tablet.
Re: CutiePi – All-in-one Raspberry Pi tablet
#19I'm quite interested in how you integrate power management into the PI. There's very little in the way of 'real' power management solutions for the PI and a myriad of 'power down when the battery is low' solutions ... is a decent, cheap, reliable fuel gauge hat just too much to ask for? :D
We're using the MCU to swtich power source between USB charging or battery, using it's ADC to serve as a voltage divider to get actual AD value from the battery, and a MP2636GR chip for charging and voltage step-up.
So yay battery percentage! ;-)

Sorry the UX is still under development, will be release when it's ready.
As a long-term Qt user, you can find my other tablet-related projects on Github, for example the browser https://github.com/penk/SlateKit/tree/master/Shell
