I finally received my PicoCalc yesterday. I’ve installed the included pico and tried out a simple basic program.

Now it’s time to start modifying it. I’m going to upgrade to a Pico 2W, and try out the python firmware.

After that I’m going to try compiling a Rust program for it.

Photo of the Clockwork PicoCalc. It kind of looks like a graph calculator, but with a qwerty keyboard.

Photo of unboxing the PicoCalc. There is an instruction manual to the left and the top case with keyboard to right. Where the screen should be there are a Raspberry Pico and an SD card.

@corpsmoderne nice physical size pity the resolution isn't a tiny bit larger. 512x512 would be perfect but don't often see that resolution

@ukscone I'm more worried by the refresh rate with that I2C interface, I guess that's what makes larger resolutions impractical?
