this includes "It’s a standalone device with its own SIM card" but it doesn't make clear whether eSIM or hard-sim

just amazing
I scrubbed through this video to see if it included handling/inserting a SIM card, it didn't. gonna presume eSIM. probably the deal guess - they signed some kind of special-APN deal with t-mo to get it live, didn't think they'd need to port (or let t-mo have preferential timeframe, or somesuch), and just never implemented it
also, in this video at about 13:10, some hilarious footage: trying to show the shitty projection, entirely out of focus, in a room already-dark to try capture the contrast.... because it has that little luminance on the project (which is duh, because battery device)
many, many lols
