I have an iPad with a Magic Keyboard that looks quite similar if you squint (albeit a bit bigger). But I can probably do a fraction of the things on it that the GDP will be able to do. I wonder why? Better hardware? Makes you wonder.
I would think that an iPad would be faster and with someone designing/building USB C based serial port connector would be a better solution. Especially if a formal KVM Hypervisor was built to run on the iPad and you could load the Linux OS of your choice that way with drivers to support utilization of the USB-C port on the iPad for hardware connectivity/sensors.
