Sounds like a good set of prioritizations. And as an old Norwegian mountaineering saying goes, there's no shame in turning back. Looking forward to seeing it come together!Btw, not that this is remotely in the same budget category, but have you seen that Framework have started selling their laptop motherboards standalone? They're not tiny, but quite small, and might be used for a higher end DIY handheld. At $399 for the i5-1135G7 version they're not that bad. Plus of course you can get an original battery that hooks directly to the motherboard, though that's not quite handheld-friendly in size.
