I remember there was a post here of a pinephone running emacs,

Have u seen any even tinier machines that people run emacs with? or of
similar size but not fully fledge phone?

I had this idea at school today, What if a calculator could run emacs,
it would be so cool. I want something that i can sneak into school for
writing.

Just curious.

You can get pretty much any form using a raspberry pi and a small (as
small as you wish) display with it.
Check out cyberdecks on /r/raspberry_pi

A lot of people run Emacs on e-books for some reason. There was a
couple posts like that on the sub.

There are lots of small devices that can run Emacs (unix, linux, etc).
Your question is which small devices you can actually use for typing…

I've used an e-reader (with Bluetooth keyboard) with Android to SSH
into a Raspberry Pi with Emacs on it. Didn't really work on it though,
but I liked the idea of being able to write with an e-ink screen.

This!

Install termux and emacs. I have a tiny bluetooth thumb keyboard and a
tiny phone stand.

I use mainly org-mode. Termux has all sorts of extra little programs
that interact with Android - one could set up some cool stuff like txt
message history in emacs etc... I probably will at some point
