Just in time for the holiday season, Raspberry Pi have launched two new bits of hardware for you to tinker with the Raspberry Pi 500 and an official Raspberry Pi Monitor.
I’m so annoyed that the 500 price increased so drastically yet doesn’t include PoE or NVMe support components despite having unpopulated pads on the board directly for “flexible future designs”. I’d prefer a $40 increase over the 400 to include these components instead of $20 more for blank spaces and no guarantee of making it work DIY style. Hopefully the 500B variant ends up with these corrections.
