(Phys.org) —The Raspberry Pi, that very low cost, little Linux computer, is living up to its backers' dreams of becoming not only a learning tool but a versatile mainstay for having fun with tinkering and developing. The latest case in point is a working phone which its creator calls the PiPhone, built to the tune of $158 for components. David Hunt said his PiPhone a result of using Pi, touchscreen interface, SIM900 GSM/GPRS module, and 2500mAh LiPo battery.
