The Nub and 128GB would have been better for the GPD Win. With the Nub, then you could have a Switch for 1 of 2 Controller Modes ALWAYS ON and still have a Mouse.

Progress happened fast on this, I guess they were developing it at the same time as GPD Win and maybe dual focus and testing caused some of the issues we had there.

If you ask me, this is an afterthought. The fast progress is likely because the chipset is the same. It's using the same CPU (including inconsistent reports of Z8700 and Z8750) and even has the same amount of RAM and ports. This is like taking the motherboard out of one case and putting it into another while upgrading the monitor and getting a new keyboard at the same time. Performance wise everything should run about the same except look a bit nicer (and feel a bit nicer as a everyday use item).

They also ditched the controllers for a more standard design, but it's not like developing a keyboard and existing pointer device is as hard as starting from scratch (it's like moving a desktop and just connecting it up differently). This is just a more thought out GPD Win that had time to improve the cooling of the CPU without needing to tack on a fan as well as listing to criticisms like lack of a middle click.

So they didn't really have to develop anything major, they already had the basic components and just changed the interface devices (Screen, Mouse, Keyboard, Case) which is a much faster process. I'm not going to fault GPD for modifying existing hardware to target multiple markets, but that's all I can really see this new computer as.
