“It's unbelievable that the type of processing power is compressed to this amount of piece of hard ware and such a little price am greatfull to open source ability of raspberry pi
Thank you...”
“I was able to think of several uses for it while waiting for a chance to grab one in the latest batch (unfortunately didn't make it in time on earlier batches).
It's a shame you can order only one per customer, but understandable because of such brutal demand.
Would be really great if one could pre-order more units for an upcoming batch. 8)
For the first project I'll have to also order pHAT DAC, but not until I put some cash on the side..”
“This is an amazing small device which can handle all kinds of applications. I've currently use this device as a timelapse machine with the Raspberry Pi Camera and works like a charm!”
“The camera connector is an improvement, although it's a shame that it needs a different cable which costs almost as much as the Zero. Availability still limited.”
“Such a tiny little pi, totally mind blowing
And there highest praise to the pimoroni guys, next day delivery on what was essentially release day for the new pi! Top job! :-D”
“Shortly after the PI Zero was released a purpose-built board was thought up to create a 16-node cluster. 16 units may be hard to get hold of, but with 2 or 3 you can build something awesome.
The memory and CPU are equivalent to the B+ with additional overclocking, this makes it perfect for Docker and a Swarm.

“An amazing little device with so many potential uses at a very affordable price. Plug a wifi dongle in and you have a small, lightweight and easy to use wireless electronics control board beyond anything I thought possible a few years ago.
This really does open up the possibilities for a hobbyist.
I've already got my model boat running with it's own webpage for control and camera streaming. Next will be controlling the Christmas lights... after that the only limit is my imagination!”
“I like the power consumption of PiZero, it's much lower than other pi's.
The only thing I really miss is the CSI connector for the Pi Camera. I have so much projects involving camera in mind!
Delivery was ~7 days, but it is still cheaper then buying from local German resellers and product was in stock. Was able to get it here while all other resellers show "Backorder" tag when trying to order.
Good job Pimoroni!
Cheers!”
