Pilet's stereo audio module design is now complete and off to manufacturing. It features the TI TLV320AIC3105 codec, a Knowles microphone, and a 3.5mm TRRS stereo audio jack. The speakers connect via JST SURS connectors, making them easy to swap or upgrade.

Here is a preview of Pilet's NVMe module which is now in manufacturing and testing. We’re considering using a knurled thumb screw instead of a traditional screw for securing the SSD. This would make installation and swapping SSDs much easier, but it might slightly increase thickness. What you think?

Here’s a preview of the LTE module for Pilet. The design is finalized and off for manufacturing. Next, we’re enabling calls and internet. Would you prefer calling via terminal command or a graphical interface? Let us know in the comments! www.kickstarter.com/projects/sou...

Raising $400K in under 48 hours has been absolutely unreal—thank you so much for the support! We’ve added new stretch goals: new colors and transparent cases for both Pilet 5 and Pilet 7, and a detachable keyboard/gamepad module for Pilet 7. Let’s make it happen. www.kickstarter.com/projects/sou...

Pilet is an open-source, modular, portable console for tinkerers, creatives, hackers, coders, and learners. Powered by the latest Raspberry Pi 5, it’s the first truly portable solution with a 7-hour battery life. Its modular design makes it easy to modify and hack. More info: soulscircuit.com/pilet
