Remove PB hardware requests (#6767)
Because @ezdiy has one (or more?) and is doing a great work with it.

I also have one (Touch HD3) which I don't use and I don't plan to use, so it's available for any contributor that wants to tinker with the platform. Thanks to @Cellaris for providing the device 😄
