It'll be interesting to see how it compares to the brilliant 8 bit port of Celeste to the Spectrum Next.

Despite the nostalgia of the rubber keyboarded version I decided to go for this one as I'm planning to use it extensively and wanted a quality keyboard: https://manuferhi.com/p/n-go-full-include-wifi-rpi-zero

The nostalgia option would have been from this site: https://ultimatemister.com/product-category/zx-spectrum/

Both are great from all reviews and the keyboard on the one I ordered is rated better than on the actual ZX Spectrum Next although not as stylish.

Cancelled my order and just placed an order for a Spectrum N-GO instead.

The fact that the sites are often Russian probably explains that.

Any of the Onyx Boox devices. They all have Gooogle Play.

Way better than a kindle would be whatever size Onyx Boox tablet that works for you. E-ink has come a,long way.

Ishmael by Daniel Quinn is fiction but you're right about it being eye opening, If you're interested in exploring similar concepts but in non-fiction I would recommend:

Civilized to Death by Christopher Ryan

The Culture of Make Believe by Derrick Jensen

A Short History of Progress by Ronald Wright

Well for someone like myself that is low volume Astraweb is great because they offer the option of buying GBs instead of monthly fees.

I use Astraweb because I can buy 1000GB at a time that doesn't expire so I avoid the monthly fees. Works well for me as I don't do a high volume and it removes any feeling of pressure to use it more than I need.

How via Stremio? None of the sports add ons I've tried ever worked.

I guess the next step is targeting preschoolers with self help.
