This page is a placeholder that is noted on the small "getting started" leaflet included with the PineTab "Early Adopter" batch. It is meant to include information to help new PineTab users get oriented with their device, its features, and any steps they need to take right away upon receiving the device.
The PineTab Early Adopter edition was the first hardware revision of the PineTab which shipped to customers. Shipping began on September 6, 2020.
 
== Software ==
 
The device shipped with a beta build of Ubuntu Touch by UBports. This build is available to download at https://ci.ubports.com/job/rootfs/job/rootfs-pinetab-systemimage/18/. It has the following problems which are software, not hardware, issues:
 
* The mouse fails to move around the entire screen. It is stuck in an 800px horizontal box.
* It is not possible to enable Bluetooth
* Cameras do not function
 
The first-time setup wizard advises the user to unplug the keyboard dock (avoiding the mouse issues) and update the system. Unfortunately, as of this update to this page (September 7, 2020) this will not fix any of the issues above.
