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.

I received an E-mail about this new item...



The IoD-09 modules features a full color 0.9” TFT LCD
display. They are powered by the WiFi enabled
ESP8266, which offers an array of functionality and
options for any Designer / Integrator / User.
The IoD-09 modules can be easily programmed using
4D Systems Workshop4 or the Arduino IDE installed
with the ESP8266 core.

The feature rich 4D Systems GFX4dIoD09 library
enables speedy development of applications by
providing extensive primitive graphics functions,
enhanced graphics via Workshop4, SD card access,
and much more, all integrated into a single library.

The IoD-09 modules can act as master or slave devices,
they can be effortless connected to the internet, can
display a raft information and graphics, along with the
capability to communicate to SPI, I2C, and/or 1-wire
devices, as well as having general GPIO for digital
control/input.

The Datasheet can be seen at 4-D...

Just wondered what the shedsters would think about this...

The documentation does not make clear what this means.

The ESP8266 in Arduino does not currently support I2C slave mode for instance.
$50SAT is Silent but probably still working.
