This looks great. In seems from a rough glance at the feature set that there are plenty of boards that do more for not much more money, but my guess is that this is designed mostly for the beginner/educational set, where everything can be nicely standardized and not the Cambrian Explosion of the *duino boards. Is that about right?

Speaking of education, does anyone have a favorite mechanical device (toy car, robot, etc) that is compatible with a microcontroller that can be used for teaching little kids? (Month 10 of learning-from-home dragging on here...)

the PIO part as far as I know does not have a match in anything else in that market segment. I was sceptical too at first, but it seems like this actually does add something new to the market. More examples will be around, but e.g. the first demo going around driving two DVI screens is already pretty neat for what's possible, and other devices would struggle with.

Do you have a link to the demo with two DVI screens?
