Should be... rumor is it'll use Amazon's store instead of Google Play,
so very mixed bag, and no wonder it slipped.

That's kind of cool... what I'm talking about, no computer needed, the
phone *is* the computer.  There's a win10/11 software MS has that can do
some stuff with my android phone... mostly use it to copy pictures off

stick a second drive in again so I can dual-boot cleaner.
