The uplift in clock speed is nice, too. And the pricing seems good as well. It's about as much as you'd pay for a bare Raspberry Pi board, keyboard and heatsink plus case.
Which brings up the sad reality, the company best positioned to deliver a more robust solution in the near future is Apple. With their "A" series, support of modern ports and other technologies that they have, a keyboard based Mac would be easy to do. Performance would be rather good too, especially for many corporate desks. The problem is Apple would charge $1500 for it.

- Video over USB-C (would require major redesign) or at least standard-sized HDMI or DP, because Micro-HDMI appears so fragile to me..
Overall it's a great idea! I would recommend it to people who do just basic tasks like browsing and text editing.
By the way the thing that is the biggest mis to me is the use of SD for OS storage. This is one of the reasons I think Apple could do a great device like this as they have a built in Flash interface.

You can look at https://github.com/ThomasKaiser/sbc-bench/blob/master/Results.md and see how similar boards fair. This will likely fit between an stock Rpi4 and an OC Rpi4.machine AES 128 bit (16 byte blocks) AES 256 bit (16 byte blocks) Rpi4 OC (1.85GHz A72 wo/crypto) 77230 80050 Odroid-C4 (2.0GHz A55 w/crypto) 195130 941590 Le Potato (1.4GHz A53 w/crypto) 96680 657200
