 :raspberrypi:  Raspberry Pi 5 is coming :raspberrypi: 

With more than twice the speed of Raspberry Pi 4, and featuring our brand new RP1 chip, we’ve refined the Raspberry Pi experience.

It’s the everything computer. Optimised.

Priced at $60 for the 4GB variant, and $80 for its 8GB sibling, units are already available to pre-order from many of our Approved Resellers, and will ship at the end of October.

 @a4e7c0dc 👀 
 Can it use Pi4 PoE hats? 
 @a4e7c0dc For the same price as one of these plus storage, power supply and peripherals, you can get a decent used laptop and actively avoid creating new E-waste. For most use cases of a single-board computer, an old laptop plus a microcontroller that runs circuitpython will do a better job. 
 @a4e7c0dc @33fa1da6 lmao $60, y'all have lost complete sight of what got you popular. I get that chips are pricey but like...lol.

$60 for this, or $60 for a Dell Micro of equivalent performance but doesn't require any addons to use M.2, hmm, decisions decisions.
