Pi news:  

The Pi foundation has released the Pi 400 which is a pi 4 built into the official pi keyboard.

I have looked at a teardown video and it is not an actual Pi 4 but a different board.  My 

first thought was it would be the compute module.

The Pi foundation has released the Pi 4 compute module

https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/compute-module-4/?variant=raspberry-pi-cm4001000&resellerType=home

Compute modules are Pi versions in a form that can be added to a custom design.  You 

could create a carrier board with a different port layout, for example.  This way the Pi 

can be customized for your project.  The new compute module does away with the edge connector.  Also USB 3 is removed in favor of exposing PCIe.  In fact the official carrier board has a 1x pcie slot.

Also both the PI 400 and PI 4 compute module feature a new stepping of the Broadcom cpu 

which is faster and cooler.  I have seen reports of the Pi 400 overclocking to 2.2 Ghz on stock 

cooling.

I will be there tomorrow as long as I can but with Covid in these times I have been very busy 

with work.  

I went by the Blue Door Cafe a week or two ago and it seems to be permanently closed.  From the window you can see they are packing up.  I'll try to go by this weekend and get some pics.
