I didn’t know what a ‘subtweet’ was until I Googled it (you mention someone without using their handle, FYI), but Twitter seem to want to take ownership of it anyway!

I can’t find anything about this on Google, so I’m assuming it’s an as yet unannounced Huawei tablet/laptop/chromebook type device. Remember where you saw it first.
I’m not sure if this is the pizza or the drink, but either way, consider me interested.
