We would like to mention especially:

The Raspberry Pi Pad 5:

  • I bought a Raspberry Pi Pad 5
  • I failed to install Raspberry Pi OS on my first attempt.
  • I saw in the web that some other where successful with it and I maybe try it later on again.

The BIGTREETECH Pad 7

  • Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft) about the aout the Raspberry Pi Pad 7:
  • “The BIGTREETECH Pad 7 is a 7-inch touchscreen display with the Raspberry Pi CM4.
  • The display is mostly designed for 3D printers
  • but it can also be used as a standard tablet PC.
  • So I tested that by using it as a tablet PC fitted with a Raspberry Pi CM4.
  • Jean-Luc Aufranc took some effort to install the CM4 module and configure Raspberry Pi OS to his needs
  • but eventually, everything works fine to his expectations including all features”

Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org

  • The Pinephone has a 5.5 inch screen
  • on this screen size Abiword and Gnumeric work great, but not LibreOffice.
  • the Raspberry CM 4 draws more power than the Pinephone.
  • but it still it can run long with a battery.
  • longer than a Raspberry Pi 4 due to it’s reduced architecture.
  • The Raspberry CM4 runs Raspberry Pi OS which was developed over the last 10 years.
  • This makes Raspberry Pi OS superior to postmarketOS in several aspects.
  • on the 7 inch display of the BIGTREETECH Pad 7 LibreOffice should be usable
  • I tested LibreOffice on a 7 inch Raspberry Pi screen and it was usable.

Information for product sellers who do stock market speculation and scalping with products mentioned by Peter Gamma on www.petergamma.org

According to the little experience of Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org, many of the products listed here are still full of issues which need to be resolved. If you do stock market speculation and scalping with those, you will loose Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org as a buyer of these products and as a reviewer. Is this not risky? Will you not loose a majority of your costumers as well?

And is it not so, that society in general does not accept stock market speculation and scalping with products as those which are listed here? And will you not be politically incapable of finding a majority of the voters if you do stock market speculation and scalping with these products?

And as a consequence will you not be condemned and punished by a political referendum soon? Especially if you do this to a Swiss, since are not majority of Swiss against stock market speculations and scalping with people on a budget? And people in Switzerland are known for a lot of political referendums, since we have direct democracy in this country.

And Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org will fight up to the European Court of Human Rights against people who do stock market speculation and scalping with the products which are mentioned on www.petergamma.org. And if they do not have yet the legal basis there to do so, he will fight for it.

What is a scalper?

A scalper is someone who buys something and resells it at a price far above the initial cost. For instance some says: “He got theater tickets through a scalper”: Someone who buys tickets to an event in order to resell them at a profit. And is it not also scalping if you take reviews from this site to make out of it a new product offer, and sell it for a higher price? We doubt that you will be successful with it. Since Peter Gamma will review your product and will user not come back to www.petergamma.org after that?
