I'm still hoping for a slightly more powerful CPU. I find it a but odd that the c67ml has a dual core while all the bigger (and sometimes newer) models have only single core CPUs. Now, I don't know if the c67's CPU is actually faster, but I was hoping to use a Linux chroot for writing LaTeX documents on the T68+. It's sort of possible, but you clearly notice the slowness (also the old android version gets in the way of getting my German keyboard properly set up...).
So although I'd been thinking about getting a larger 9.7 reader, I'll only consider that when they come with a slightly better CPU (possibly imx7 dual core might be nice). Don't know if that's going to happen any time soon though.
If I found some workaround for the keyboard encoding, I might be able to make the current generation work for me too, but as it is it's just not with investing that much money into something that's but working the way I want it to (plus onyx isn't very open about enabling people to work on alternative OSs that might fix the problem... Another big minus in my book)
