Christine's talk is available on YouTube where she demonstrates the new Pyboard D and presents the specs.

All we need now Damien, is a release date!

What is the cost and market for pyboard D?

Is small linux SOC (plenty available, pi zero, onion omega, linkit smart, plenty of pi clones) running at >500Mhz speed and able to run full Python 2 and 3 at very low cost ($5 to <$15) an alternative?

the specs at 25' on the video may give you an answer

10uA during deepsleep. Try running a pi zero on batteries for a while and see how long you last.
