    I’ve moved on from the Raspberry Pi project. Ebon Upton is a twat.

    There are far more available boards out there now that have similar featuresets, and aren’t scalped to high heavens.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    New memory variants were this week launched for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module family.

    A CM4SLite variant also turned up - seemingly earlier this year - , supplied without the eMMC storage fitted, but 1GB of RAM was all that was available at launch.

    The Compute Module has proven to be a popular device for industrial users, with a fair few turning up in hardware such as digital signage.

    The Raspberry Pi team said the device was for customers “who are looking to retain the same form factor but would like greater computing power and more memory.”

    In the hardware documentation [PDF], the team notes: “The CM4S SoC has a slightly increased z-height over the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3.”

    Pi supremo Eben Upton told The Register that the hardware design was complete, and the company was still aiming for release in the second half of 2024.
