If it's discontinued, what will that mean for any repairs and replacement parts?

I think this is easy:

If you have the spare money and you wouldn't use it for anything more important anyway, then go for it.

If not, then think about what you want to do, and see if the Google Pixel Slate i5 would help you achieve it.

That's how I ended up with an extra 32-inch TV I never use... but it's better to regret buying something than regret missing a chance that will not come back.

I decided to remove it from the cart. I don't need it, do want it, but feel I might get buyers remorse.
