The inclusion of the ESP 32 is nice but I would also use it as an I/O expander. |

This first batch of Fruit Jams is a test/QA batch. Adafruit have had to rethink a lot of their production, what with That Big Eejit and his tariffs. Hence the delay for this board. A full batch should be shipping soon. My Fruit Jam has been stuck at the Jamaica NY mail depot for the last few days. It's kind of a shame that Adafruit went with the ESP32 C6 as their network chip. Yes, it's very cheap (pre-tariff) but it's not compatible with the Raspberry Pi Radio Module 2. Thus networking is right out for PicoMite usage. |

I have bought a Fruit Jam and now have had an initial play. So far so good, the build quality is excellent, albeit a bit expensive landed in Aus after transport etc. The HDML was a main point for me. It uses serious overclocking so I wanted to see it in action. Not bad, I am getting 16 bit color (I think) at 640x360 resolution without hassle, works on all the HDML monitors I tried, including an old 900x1440 wide ~VGA via a HDML-VGA converter (!).

Build quality: Granted I'm a bit of a freak but I spend a ridiculous amount of time just staring at the RP2350 DIL. A thing of beauty ![]() |

Nerd. I'm still getting over the 28-pin Micromite. Mind you, I think the PGA2350 is pretty cool now I've put gold plated pins on it. :) Mick Zilog Inside! nascom.info for Nascom & Gemini Preliminary MMBasic docs & my PCB designs |
