I didn't yet succeed in converting the installation script so it would run on Arch (unsupported) but I'll try again over the weekend.

The support team have been responsive on a number of questions too. When they open up the range of models that can be run, it'll be a huge boost.

A curious detail I noticed:

the USB Id of the Coral Accelerator is for Global Unichip Corp, who are a fabless ASIC design service company (according to their Wikipedia page). I had been expecting it to be Google obviously.

That surprises me too - it's very unlike Google to contract out tech like this.

Given how the SOM version connects over PCI-E, maybe it is a USB3.0 to PCI-E bridge?
