Raspberry Pi 3 adds wi-fi and Bluetooth

The Raspberry Pi has become the most popular British computer yet made.

The milestone comes as the Raspberry Pi 3 is unveiled featuring a faster 64-bit processor and built-in wi-fi and Bluetooth connections. It will go on sale for $35 (£30).

The updated device has a 64-bit processor onboard that gives the Pi 3 a 50% performance improvement on the Pi 2.

Hobbyists using the Pi to act as a hub for smart home gadgets would be able to use Bluetooth to link devices and sensors together.

"This is the first Pi you can stick behind your TV and completely forget about," said Mr Upton.
