If power is supplied through usb cable it should be possible to buy a sealed rechargeable gel battery to make the device truly portable. However in terms of bang for your buck I suspect that second hand notebooks or laptops are a cheaper alternative and come with built in battery and screen.
What inbuilt software does the Raspberry OS come with? Their website was not readily divulging it . . . Or is it a case like Apple where you have to buy each piece of software at monopolistic prices?

I think I read 'RaspberryOS' some-kind-of Linux -- not sure.

@FearlessFly yeah, that's all it seemed to say. The question is how does their OS outperform the big boys whether Ubuntu, Red Hat or Debian all of which can be obtained with a raft of Open Source programs ready to perform at no cost unless used commercially?

A basic computer for day-to-day tasks, coding, or media playback. It’s available starting today as a standalone machine for $70 or in a bundle including a mouse, power supply, microSD card, HDMI cable, and beginner’s guide for $100.
