It looks very nice.

It looks somewhat backwards compatible as well.

I intend to order one when available.

(Thank goodness for google translate)

The pyboard D was presented this week-end at FOSDEM Brussels, and MC-HOBBY was there too.
See https://fosdem.org/2019/schedule/event/ ... rs_python/
there is even a video.
Excellent presentation.

An impressive selection of I/O boards too. Damien has evidently been very busy indeed.

The board is not available yet, it should be on the next few days (or weeks).

Amazing!

I'd also like to have a look, what processors will be available (especially, which chip family), etc. Where is this information accessible?
And of course, a timeline would be nice, when we can order :D

Hi All,

Slightly off-topic, sorry!

I am desperate to get one of these.

I teach at an English University and am in the process of preparing a Masters-level module on IoT. This board seems to be ideal (I'm still wary of committing to an ESP, ST seem to have abandoned their wifi board [in stock, not for new designs], and WINC seems a bit long in the tooth). Being able to use Python rather than C makes the module accessible to the 'data in the cloud' set, and engineers will quickly adapt from C to Python.

Can someone email the community once these have actually become available - I need to get my hands on one.

Thanks all.

Phil
