Yes, it was manufacturing some first revision of BlazeTablet but now
it is out of production.
On Svtronics there is ability to buy only BlazeTablet2 and we use only
it last year as
development platform.

The difference is known - another display, sensors, diffs in routing
gpio to leds etc..
The same DTS will allow to boot BlazeTablet and BlazeTablet2 but
number of supported features
of course will be less in case of first revision of BlazeTablet

Since first revision of Blazetablet is not available to buy and we do
not use it for some time
I think there is no needs in doing support of it upstream.

Ruslan
