In a shock development, Raspberry Pi have today announced the opening of an official store in Cambridge. Based on the first floor of the Grand Arcade in the centre of town, all manner of official goodies and third-party products are available, including the venerable Babbage Bear, shown above. Myself and Tim Richardson are dead chuffed that they are stocking all three CamJam EduKits as well!
