So far I found Archos a french company which seems to be more on the budget side and Volla a German company with one higher end tablet.

    The Volla Tablet looks pretty cool. 12 GB RAM and dual boot of a degoogled Android and Ubuntu Touch. 700 for the tablet plus 150 for a folding keyboard, plus 50 for the pen.

    Sadly the pen doesn’t work with Ubuntu Touch. Otherwise this might be a nice machine for painting with Krita.

    The display cleaner is cute and lovely. I might just get that and use it with my other machines

      At the moment, this would be the frontrunner. But, it has been on the market for ~a year and they only guarantee “at least 5 years” of software updates. So for the price and with sustainability in mind this seems a very short time. I have to contact them for more information…

        It is at least 5 years and there might be a custom rom for it, at some point.

          You can already use Ubuntu touch if the Volla OS is no longer serviced. I am critical on a very high level, but I really hate e-waste through software obsolescence.
