Genuinely curious: why does their announcement upset you so much? Most of the tech world announces products, executes a marketing strategy and then releases stock into the market. You make it sound like someone left you standing at the altar. You didn't know it existed an hour ago. If you were on a long vacation, it might have released before your return. Why get angry?
I think you’re talking past each other. The “information” is the schematics and firmware of the board, not the press release and the specs.

#843anyone could tell me how did you use raspberry pi?
I use * 1 CM4 for a PiKVM on my desktop (my main home server uses a proprietary iLO). * 1 CM4 as router running OpenWrt, to replace my ER-Lite. * 3 CM4s in a Turing Pi 2, one Jetson Orin for ML. This is my homelab. The CM4 are running Dietpi. * 2 RPi4 as remote VPN (Wireguard) endpoints to do tech support for my mother-in-law and mother. Also serves as Jellyfin server containing old movies, and jumphost for NAS backu…
CM is the computer module, right? what kind of "board" do you use the CM4 with to use it as a router?

Amazon is not a good place to get prices from for a comparison. All the enshittification has ruined the prices. As it forces prices up outside Amazon too even outside prices are not useful. To do a proper comparison that doesn't include changes forced by Amazon IMO you need to look at non-US non-Amazon non-Amazon-sellers prices and work with those. Quite annoying really.
I've seen the word "enshittification" three times in three days now, and it is already rubbing my last nerve raw. we make fun of business jargon and buzzword fads, and we do it just as much as anyone else, and it sickens me.

#845A NVMe compatible M.2 M Key connector (like the Rock 5 Model B [0] has) would have been really nice. I'm starting to accumulate old but good, yet small in storage space terms NVMe's which I'm no longer needing, but which would be perfect for a Raspi. Even if the PCIe bus were an older generation and not as performant as the NVMe. The microSD card slot is really great to have, to get up-and-running, but once it's clea…
Meanwhile in reality when nvme drives die in like 6 months… ughhhh

#846I know this will sound like a whinge but it's really a shame they removed the audio jack, it was so useful for simple sound/music projects.

#847The competition has always been the Jetson Nano.
Vision Five 2 is now my favourite passively coolable SBC.

The blog post says they're releasing a M.2 hat in "early 2024"
I don't love that you'll have to choose between PoE, M.2, or active cooling / a case.
