Can the brains of the group provide any more information on this addition to the pantry?
looks like the Zero now has almost everything.
Not the much faster CPU or the 1 GB of RAM or the ethernet port or the 4 USB ports or the full-size HDMI port or the A/V-jack. If those are what you need.
I'd prefer a Pi Zero EP. Wired Ethernet and PoE.
There's a reasonable short summary and comparison with other RPi models here:
But they are twice the price (Yes I know, I'm hopelessly frugal). Micro wifi dongles are 1.33GBP on Ebay.
Is anyone still stocking the basic zero?
Wot? Normal zero's now in short supply? I have a slow burning project(*) that doesn't need WiFi or rotten teeth (but would benefit from Ethernet and PoE). I can probably come up with other non-wifi projects as well. Do I need to stock up?
(*) Controller for the wood burner/boiler linked to the thermal store and may expand to include control of the oil boiler as well.
