Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Oh, that's interesting! I see you need yet another different power supply and case. This is getting more and more like Apple. :) From the positioning and what looks like a parallel interface to the main processor it looks like the new RP1 chip might be handling all the USB stuff. The rectangular chip is in an odd place.

yes - it looks like element14 managed to send out their messages a few hours before everyone else... when i got mine the whole web was silent on the RPi5, with estimates of 2024 for its release. now, a mere 12 hours later, it is old news!  


cheers,
