Excelent addition to the Raspberry Pi family. One of the things that really held back projects on the original Pico was lack of connectivity, and this really makes it a great competitor for the ESP32 family. Looking forward to hopefully more support for this board in Arduino and PlatformIO in coming weeks.

The Pico W is a good addition to the Pico line. It's a capable and affordable board with a lot of possibilities. The addition of Wireless (and hopefully eventually Bluetooth) to the pico opens up a lot of potential applications. I wish that the wireless had been integrated into the RP2040 a la an ESP type microcontroller, rather than an additional chip on the board, but that's a minor thing. As usual, excellent service from Pimoroni.

Such a good product, I love the Raspberry Pi range and this tiny Pico With added wifi just makes projects sooooo good! Pimoroni is one of my favourite hobby shops ever! They have such a great array of products, the site is so easy to navigate and search.

I used my Raspberry Pi Pico W in a Chicken Coop monitoring system and it works great. I plan to buy another one to build a DIY egg incubator!

So far this is a very neat board. I'm finally learning MicroPython because of it. Doesn't take long to get it connected to WiFi. Next, I will get connected to my MQTT broker.

A truly simple, educative "next gen" microcontroller . Documentation from Raspi is awesome, keep up the good work.

so far, so good. have had the picoW for a week now and all is working great. i have exercised the WIFI with examples from the updated C/C++ SDK. All works for the wifi-scan and associate w/ WAP. Works as access point which i had not expected but am delighted with. Also have exercised as CANbus using O'conner's CANbus driver that makes gpio pins be cantx, canrx (still need diff driver of course for full implementation (driver uses the exotic pio state engines to make CANbus, find on github and hackaday article). A+++ to the rpi brainiacs!! will be using a bunch of these.
