Raspberry Pi 3

I havent used either of my Raspberry Pis for a while now, but thats down to my ever changing loft setup. On the 29th February 2016 they released the Raspberry Pi 3. I like that they have finally done away with the A and B models and just called them simple revisions.

The 3 new features of the Pi 3 is a

1. 50% faster processor which will make it ideal for running those 5th and 6th generation consoles much easier, as well (assuming the emulators are up to scratch) as making difficult consoles and games run smoother.
2. Bluetooth connectivity, this is great news for all of us who have to buy a separate Bluetooth USB model to plug into the Pi just to get it to work with controllers.
3. Onboard Wi-fi. This too a while to get there but this is equally great news as it frees up a USB port and truly makes the Pi a decent Linux computer.

The final piece of news is that the form factor is identical to the Pi 2 and its also the same price.
