Raspberry Pi 3 Model B confirmed, with onboard BT LE and WiFi

It gathered the whole family together to play old couch-games[0], something that most powerful consoles haven't even been close --specially with the grampas

Really exited about what the future will bring us!

I'll be picking one up. Onboard WiFi is a big deal.

Agreed.

I'm still waiting for a Zero. A Zero with onboard Wifi would be brilliant: really small, needs little power, and you don't need to hook it up to anything but the power supply.

Retropie makes emulationstation on the pi really easy!

The onboard Wifi and Bluetooth really makes the barrier of entry for IoT $5 (assuming the stick with the $5 mark)

Can someone explain to me the room that the test photos are from? Is it sound proof? Why?
