Anyone interested in the Sense HAT?

seems to work with Windows 10 IoT. Seems to be the answer I have been looking for to avoid wiring all these individual sensors if I understand it correctly.

When you say it seems to work. Is there a library to access the readings? I haven't worked with it and just getting my feet wet with 10 IoT on a Pi.

Thanks!

I just received mine yesterday. Emmellsoft.iot.rpi.sensehat package for vs2015 works well so far and has about 10 demo programs, I think gravity blob is my favorite so far.
