Why no WIZnet W5100S-EVB-Pico? $10 with a built in hardwired ethernet jack.

Adafruit is a gold standard??!! Clearly the author never had to deal with their customer support because if he did, he'd know that Adafruit is the nastiest, most pathetic company that has ever existed. If you don't trust me, read reviews on Google or Yelp to see how they deal with anybody who has any sort of problem with their products.

With two Arm Cortex M0+ cores running at 133 MHz, 264KB of RAM and up to 16MB of Flash

Hmm... In 1988, my family got a PC XT, which had a 4.77 MHz 8088, a 10 MB HDD, and I think 640 kB of RAM (but I'm not too sure about that).

By comparison, it's way down on memory, at least for the amount of processing power it has. If it had a few MB of RAM, then it should have ample performance to run Doom or even Quake at 320x200.

Uh. Pricing seems wildly off. The article says the Pimoroni Enviro Indoor is $6. Which would be fantastic. But on the Pimoroni site it's listed for £36. That's around $44 USD, 7.3x your listed price.

The price is correct on the linked article for this board.

Bluetooth added to existing Pico W

You should update this article and your original review of the Pico. Thanks!

Interesting 🤨

They‘re going to have a YouTube episode about Bluetooth on the Pi Pico:
