Both boards have a micro USB connector for power and programming, a firmware flashing button, and six pins for power and four GPIOs. The Raspberry Pi RP2040 board differs in that it comes with a MicroSD card for data storage.
Roundy creator Om Singh doesn't say much about software support, although we can see some hazy screenshots of the Android IDE and MicroPython code on Roundy official page.
The Roundy boards are now available for pre-order on Kickstarter, with prices beginning at $28 for the RoundyPi and $34 for the RoundyFi. Those are early bird discounts, with retail prices of 35 GBP ($47.5) and 45 GBP ($54.25) expected. There are also bundles that include two or more boards.
