Foundation launches Red Chinese model of the #RaspberryPi

Exciting news from the Raspberry Pi Foundation today. They have granted a licence to Egoman Technology Corp to produce and distribute Pis in China and Taiwan. In order to distinguish between the Chinese models and the Rest of the World, they will be red in colour. Collectors in the Rest of the World will be unable to obtain them legally as they do not carry FCC/CE marks.

I daresay a black market will now spring up overnight. However, these boards are identical except for colour and the standards marks, so I wouldn’t get too excited about getting hold of one!

They’re very pretty though, aren’t they!
