Raspberry Pi Zero - Your First Impressions

spannerspencer
spannerspencer over 9 years ago

So, big news today, eh? The all new, super-slim, super-small Raspberry Pi Zero.

 

We've got all the tech specs, we've compared it to the other Raspberry Pis, we've got an FAQ running, and we've even had a go at turning it into a retro games console (quite successfully, I might add!).

 

So what are your first impressions? What sort of projects do you envisage it being useful for?

 

Tell us below!

    Ha! Love it image

     

    I even hate the word, "selfie", let alone taking them.

     

    Inspired!

    I'd like to see the WiFi implementation, I assume it is probably just hacked onto the USB bus but the article is a little light on details and the 'presentation' page doesn't seem to have much either.

    As much as I would like to, I'm not going to be attending Kiwicon...

    I didn't read it all (really bad internet and lots to do), but I thought the whole concept was excellent.

    I need one that you can use when these people insist on getting their phone out to check Faceache or similar every few minutes

    Why do they need to add photos immediatley, instead of enjoying the physical beings they are out with.
