They say it's going to be either i.MX6 or i.MX8. They haven't yet
decided. (This further underlines my point that it's definitely nothing
like a finished product, yet.)

This would be the opimal approch given the existing baseband situation,
but please note that Puri.sm haven't specified yet what they mean by
'separate'.

The Tor Project hardened-Android articles has some good thoughts about
the baseband problem and how to isolate it as best can be achieved under
current circumstances.

I don't want to be unduly cynical about Puri.sm, but they have had a
history of overselling and being just a bit reticent about the secret
proprietary bits they've not addressed at all in their 'open' designs.

Have you written this up, somewhere?

And have you written up the details of this?
