If you care about bluetooth, you're so far totally out of luck. Sound does not work yet either. Suspend / Hibernate does not work. Occasionally the screen freezes, forcing the user to do a hard reset. Plus the 32-bit Efi troubles to make the install media boot. Considering the price I think the device would not be bad, if they would be able to fix these issues. From what I have been reading, it seems like people from Intel are working on linux fixes for this and similar devices, but even if things go well some patience is required.
