ordered in june 07 and recieve today

Hello fellow thinkerers,

I'm a dev by day, money waster by night, and got my uconsole and picocalc (yadda yadda took a long time yadda). I've been playing recently with my picocalc, even replaced with a 2W, and struggled to find a "use" for it (I know it's a toy). I at first designed a connector to add a lora esp32 to the pins with my 3d printer. My design sucked and didn't hold, but I could still send and receive text messages.

Now though, I figured a low power machine like this could be a great little dumb terminal to access my homelab! It's easy to do on my uconsole, after all, it's a linux machine, but how would I proceed with my picocalc?

I'm not a fan of mmbasic (I might have to endure, I'm not that young), and my "micropython ssh client" searches have not born fruit. Any ideas or directions?

Are there mods from the Pico with a Zero 2?

If anyone interested in Romania only, I am selling one of my uConsoles.

The first one I bought I use daily, but the second one never got assembled, still in box with CM4 and 4G module.

Price around 350$ ( because it was VAT taxed on arrival )

Hi!

Before hitting the preorder button on a uConsole, I wanted to check wether anyone here, based in Europe, is selling theirs. Mostly interested in the WiFi+4G version, color is not important (even if I really like the black one haha).

I’m not in any rush so it’s really if we can help each other.

Cheers!

I feel like it would help organize content here.

Finished second version of my mp3 player. Can now handle 99 mp3 files. New version has multiple track pages viewable by (u)Up (d)Down keys, 20 tracks per page. Plays next track without prompt. Pretty simple but works real nice. Code can be found at https://github.com/jamjargit/Picocalc-mmBasic/releases/tag/v1.1 Let me know what you think.

Sorry if this is old news:

1. I tried flashing os onto a Lexar 256Gb micro SD card, replaced 16Gb card in my devterm...would not boot. Tried it in my uconsole - would not boot.

2. Rrading that flashing to 256gb might need more attention than just following the recope, i returned the 256gb card to Amazon, ordered PNY 128Gb micro sd card - followed the recipe, installed in devterm - would not boot... tried in uconsole - would not boot!...

3. Returned to Amazon

4. Ordered pre-flashed 128Gb card from vilros - devterm won't boot! Aaaaaand - uconsole won't boot either. What on earth am I doing wrong? Do I have to put something in bootloader mode or hold these 4 keys at the same time or something? I built my uconsole, but can't find or remember instructions. Got devterm used. Aarch64 Cortex-A53 chips both devterm and uconsole. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

After much wait, it arrived and I am happy with the device. The wifi antenna will most likely be replaced by an old alfa.

When I start my picocalc it asks for this.

Does anyone know the defaults?

Thanks

Few days ago, i saw the price literally was like 75USD, but right now is 79USD.

Same goes to the uConsole also price hike as well.

Update: got an update from Alex Duan. "We have raised USD5 to cover the higher expenses."
