    Ideally I’d like a RISC-V board that could be slotted into a Fairphone!

    A man can dream, after all.

    (You probably know already, but: Pine64 are dipping their toes into RISC-V… they just don’t seem to be going all out for the new architecture… yet.)

      I think I’ve read something, however, as mentioned, that seems far. pine64 just launched recently its arm new pro phone for developers (not consumers yet), which improves some specs, as to to be doing major changes, like adopting new ISA, but yes, I seem to remember reading about their interest, and perhaps something happening underneath, but I guess not their focus at the moment with the recent launch of several arm based products…

        They developed the pinecil - a soldering iron which has a RISC-V chip in it.

        There’s also - I think it’s called - the pinecone… a board for backporting bluetooth / wifi etc. The BL602?
