I got recently a package from Element14(Farnell in the Netherlands) with
a Raspberry Pi 2!!!
There was even a booklet enclosed:
with some tips on how to connect it, but that wasn't the main thing, that is the Raspberry Pi:
There was even a micro-sd card included with a sd-card adapter:
I already had received a nice case for this fruity monster:
in where the sd-card fitted nicely:
Connecting the RPi is very easy, the nice thing of this version is that there are only 2 side on where there are connectors:
The booting was very fast and after some changes in the raspi-config the monitor showed me the desktop:
on which I am now writing this blog post.
Review:
It is a really fast thing, I didn't see much lag, only now because of the large photos, and it is booting up very fast. The CPU load stayed under the 40%.
The 4 usb ports are very nice, I shot the photos on my Ipad and connected it to my RPi2 and it worked!
Another nice feature is that today(today) Microsoft released a beta-version of Windows 10 for the RPi2, which I will be testing later today.
