The raspberry pi foundation have announced a new edition to the famously cheap Raspberry Pi Zero: Raspberry Pi Zero W

It appears to be the Raspberry Pi Zero with the Raspberry Pi 3's wireless chipset added on.

The retail price will be double from the $5 of the original Pi Zero to $10, but as before, expect to add on the price of the specific mini cables and pin headers to turn it into a fully fledged Pi. [takyon ed note: But not necessarily as many because... wireless?]

There is also a new Raspberry Pi Zero official case (which fits both Pi Zero editions).

    What's it gonna cost to get a power adapter, and whatever it takes to converse with my 3 TB NAS, and stream from hulu/amazon/whatever? Cuz if it's less than about $80/month I come out ahead.

    / really need to call Time Warner tomorrow and talk about my cable bill
    // not getting $150/month value out of it
    /// now that the Chargers are in LA have no reason to watch any sports at all
