NEW Raspberry Pi 3B+

Yeah, just read that, too.
However. The Ethernet is only about 300 MBit actually
It’s still USB2.0 -
I am also somewhat disappointed as I expected more RAM and USB 3.0.
For German readers there is a short article on Heise which also contains some benchmarking results they did.

There is no real benefit of it… hopefully pi4 will getting more RAM
-
At least USB3 would be great…

Im also littlebit disappointed from the B+ …I bought a few days ago my 2nd PI (B) but i dont think the changes are that impressiv to send it back and order the new one.
I hope the PI 4 get some features of the “ODROID XU4Q” for example:
- 2GB RAM
- 8 core CPU
- eMMC5.0 support as SD-card alternative
- USB 3
(@all there now think to get this “ODRIOD” … its way to expansiv with ~ 80euro on Amazon)
