That $4 dev board looks like it might be an esp32 killer, or at least good competition. I was thinking of the esp32-c3 which is also risc-v with wifi and ble. It currently has really great rust support. You can even build the stdlib for it so you don't have to mess with no_std. The bl602 doesn't seem to have rust support yet, but I'm looking forward to more options.

Note esp32-c6 is already available. e.g. ESP32-C6-DevKitC-1-N8.

I have a couple of the Pine64 boards that run Linux. Unless something changed, it doesn't have WiFi or BLE support, and likely never will.

I think it does: https://github.com/bouffalolab/bl-pac/tree/main/bl808

Thanks! It wasn't on the awsome rust embedded github yet, but when I dig in I found it. The bl602 does support wifi, but only 2.4 and I presume at lower rates. It definitely doesn't run linux though. But I wouldn't put it past someone to figure out a way.
