Hi,

here's the first really cheap board I found, looks nice

When reading the specs of the ESP8285 I found that GPIO9 and GPIO10 are basically
free for use:

Note that since ESP8285 has SPI flash memory internally connected in DOUT mode,
pins 9 and 10 may be used as GPIO / I2C / PWM pins.

Is it likely to make those available?

Confirmed the ESP8285 works with micropython just fine. Soooooo small!

Yep, I also ordered a few of those. Now I need to learn to solder such tiny stuff...1/20'' pin width, sigh.

Mail from China arrived today. Test rig briefly fried together. Waiting for another time slot to proceed ...

Nice trick with soldering two 2.54mm headers to the 1.27mm holes!
