Oooooh, this seems really nice. I assume that the fact that the chip is basically the one on the Raspberry Pi 3 should mean that it has "USB Gadget" mode so you can turn it into a virtual USB device, which is particularly nice if you want to run it headless connected to your computer. You could turn this into a USB Wifi adapter with piHole built-in!
I love that these computers are so cheap they are literally giving them away for subscribing to the Raspberry Pi magazine! The fact that a $15 computer can have built in H.264 encode and decode is...

The fact that a $15 computer can have built in H.264 encode and decode is pretty impressive. I can see it being used for tons of DIY electronic displays.
I used to have tons of Raspberry Pis around the house for running various tasks, but I've consolidated all but one of them into a Synology NAS. The only one I have left is running Home Assistant, since the containerized version for Synology doesn't support all of the features.
They're great for just experimenting and messing around with, since you can just throw a new SD card in with a base image and be good to go.
I also have quite a few friends who bought them during the pandemic to use as cheap computers to hook up to their TVs for watching movies together online.
I really need a linux-capable board to put my printer on my WireGuard network - I wish I could get my hands on a pi 4 right now but they’re out of stock everywhere.

Guess I'll buy one and add it to my collection of pis that sit in a drawer because I'm impulsive, but bad at committing to projects!
In the future they'll likely be collectible!

Are you in the states? I see they're out of stock on amazon.com but there's 10 of the pi 4 4gb left on amazon.ca if shipping isn't too unreasonable.
