The GPD Win, worth getting?

I was looking at the DragonBox Pyra and recently found out about the GPD Win. Now I'm thinking of getting one instead of the Pyra and installing Manjaro Linux on it.

According to these two threads I found, The GPD Win should be able to run Linux.

I figure since this is a X86 based computer it will be much more useful to me then the Pyra will be.

Has anyone else been looking at getting one?
 
No one else is curious about this device? I think the idea of it is neat, a laptop you can carry in your pocket.
 
I'm somewhat interested. That's something I could use for work, but it would be a convenience thing over using a regular laptop; read not necessary. I have an hp 200lx, and I'm a little surprised that form factor never really took off.
