It's currently £5 inc. delivery on Amazon.co.uk. This puts it into Raspberry Pi Zero and NodeMCU/ESP8266 territory.

Add to the fact that internally it's not very different to the venerable TP-Link WR-703N and it's possibly a great OpenWRT device to tinker with.

I've used Gearbest in the past. They're ok to order from generally, but their unsubscribe mailing list email link doesn't work and I had trouble ordering from them initially due to delivery address issues at my end.

Except the pi zero has a 1ghz quad core processor and 512mb ram. This has 64mb and a terrible 400mhz single core processor (i think). So not really that comparable.

Also not forgetting that without modifying the chip it gives the Chinese company that makes it complete access to any files that go near it if it gets internet access.

pi zero has 700mhz single core, same as raspberry A/B/B+. Also, zsun has built in WiFi

It's the same chip, clocked at 1Ghz. https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/raspberry-pi-zero/

Do you have a link on Amazon? I see it for £5.99 + £3.99 shipping

Same. Can't spot anything cheaper on Amazon.co.uk. Note that it is dispatched from China...

This is £4.99 for me, but I'm a Prime subscriber: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00Y1Z9S8A
