I'm so happy it has builtin wifi. No more finicky dodgy USB dongles that get lost!

No kidding, it was otherwise such a simple thing to tuck away and use even for GPIO/breadboarding projects, but then you had to find one or two dongles to handle wifi/bluetooth turning the whole thing from handheld to a cluster of wires, dongles and connectors.

Massive improvement if that was all that happened.

It is still a cluster of wires - hdmi, power, usb, audio. USB WiFi & BT dongles are as small as 5mm outside the socket.
