I saw this on my FB feed just now [image] Do people have ideas/speculation whats coming? The right device looks different than the rest, so it could be more than one device announcement. I hope its a BT/Wifi combo so that we can move away from Soft AP for setup.

Hmm, interesting - what would be a use case for all three radios in one? Just, generally curious… Also, I wonder if Particle will stick with the molecular-names (photon, electron). They are so few names that aren’t obsure.

[image] RWB: I figured this new prouct release was long off into the future! Same! I wonder if one of these is the ESP32 board that we've been looking forward to. Also the boards look like they are Adafruit Feather form factor, which is nice.

[image] nrobinson2000: I wonder if one of these is the ESP32 board that we’ve been looking forward to. Assuming all we know already I don't see these being anything other than the ESP32 based modules they were hiring people to code for. Of course, that is just an assumption.

[image] Moors7: What do we all know already😱? [image] [image] Any new hardware on the horizon? General I think the recently posted jobs are giving some hints… sparkles nice! [image]

[image] RWB: Assuming all we know already I don’t see these being anything other than the ESP32 based modules they were hiring people to code for. Of course, that is just an assumption. and a $9.99 price?

[image] BulldogLowell: and a $9.99 price? We can dream can't we :slight_smile: It will be interesting to see the pricing.

$9.99 for the dev board is fair. I do hope they sell the certified-module (like P1) for half of that. It does make sense for Particle to move away from making profit off of the hardware and focus on cloud subscriptions for product makers.

And definitely no ethernet on any of these products despite a lot of people asking for.
