Wesley Moore<p>Assembled my PicoCalc today. It was really well packaged with nice instructions. The device itself feels really well constructed and has a few features you might not expect like speakers, headphone jack, volume knob, backlit keyboard, and inbuilt charger for the 18650s. Next step is finding out what the little BASIC shell is capable of.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.decentralised.social/tags/ClockworkPi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClockworkPi</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.decentralised.social/tags/PicoCalc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PicoCalc</span></a></p>
Bosco<p>I finally received a PicoCalc from clockworkpi. It's a nice piece of kit. Is there already a software archive?
