PoE on the Radxa X4 could be a game changer. The promise of an Intel N100 running with one cable is enticing.
But the implementation is kludgy at best....

@npub1e0d…f7q2 is about to launch the ROCK 5C, the latest low cost SBC from Radxa, it will have up to 32GB of RAM and Pi 5 compatible PCIe connector.
No info on their website yet.

@npub18hd…kf64 @npub18zk…7euq Yeah, really waiting to find out more about the CM5.
The SoC chip is quite a bit bigger than the CM4. So many questions.
Thermals will be important on the CM5 though.

@npub18hd…kf64 @npub1axc…um6d yep, Le Potato has IR receiver and when I asked for documentation they were like "look at this webpage from the 90's with no real life examples"
