Seems a major shift in direction and a major distraction.

I don't think the renewed Commodore will last too long.

If you want a brand new C64 get em before they become .... collectors items.

  -> $500   
  -> Corny nostalgia-bait   
  -> No web browser   
  -> No social media   
  -> System-level DNS blocking

Lmfao. What even is the point of this ? I could see an argument for not allowing to install social media apps, but blocking me arbitrarily from even accessing them through a browser is crazy. The OS is Linux-based too, so there’s no technical constraint, they just went out of their way to add always-on parental control.

For $500 (FIVE HUNDRED) you get a $30 dumb phone with Whatsapp. Wow.

I really want to like this, but does it bring anything new to the table? I see the same low-effort buzzwords I've seen on other "dumb" phones.

And the design…it looks like a Motorola.
