Holy crap, $5?
I've been looking to do a couple SBC projects recently, but I need/ want something more powerful, so this wouldn't be in my lane. I do love how cheap edge computing power is becoming, largely thanks to rPi. I'm not a fan of IoT, but I am a fan of sticking little, self-managed computers everywhere!
Only NOW, sold out everywhere😶
You should be aware that this is classified and marketed as a microcontroller, so it's just a bootloader to some code with no OS or a RTOS.
Something like the RPi Zero is a SBC that's relatively close in size.
The original pico was also $5
That's crazy 🤯
It is, some were attached to a magazine on launch too! Last I checked AdaFruit had some great tooling for the microprocessor
