That article claims apps are "containerized" i.e. isolated from one another. That might mean that functions such as Office automation or ShellExecute( ) from within VFP will no longer work.

The hardware is designed to compete against Chromebooks so is likely to be low-end. That said, if the device has enough free storage for your app(s) after upgrading to Pro, it might be a way to get a cheap device with good battery life.
