watch out for the Azure subscription tho' nice for anyone wanting to get stuff directly into Microsoft's cloud. Bit pricey at $84 but definately interesting that M$ want to play "maker stuff" when Intel so recently bailed. https://www.seeedstudio.com/MT3620-Development-Board-for-Azure-Sphere-p-3052.html |

Looks like it's "not from Intel"? It's got no chance in an extremely crowded market full of things at far lower cost. Interesting that they want to try it! Is the proprietary azure lock-in the "interesting" part? John |

I agree with that. I thought the Azure thing was a plus if you are looking for explicitly internet+app+analysis type projects. The baked in cloud access makes this an easy path - although point-to-point IP stuff is not hard with the plethora of network interface modules around... For general "makers" I think you're right - at $84 it is pretty much dead in the water but universities and small run productions etc might jump on it as an easy "in" to IoT+cloud we will see... it has a tough climb against the likes of RPi |
