“Depending what you are going to do with Raspberry Pi this is ultimate board for carrying it within your bag. Either run it with power bank USB so it can work while on the go. Or start developing/testing/demonstrating on the go with your laptop (or BT keyboard and HDMI display).
Standard pinouts make it almost fully compatible with Raspberry Pi (missing only other USB ports, AV port and ethernet).”
“Love my raspberrypi's I've now got four of them and I've learned a lot over the years of having them from basic coding to soldering and circuits. One of the best things I've ever bought.
If it wasn't for the such low entry level price I would never have started this in the first place.”
“With WiFi on board all my projects just jumped one step ahead: having connectivity where there was none, or saving power where I was using USB wifi dongles.”
“Built-in WiFi and blue-tooth makes this much more useful. Just connects to home wifi without the need for big bulky connectors larger than the board itself”
