Over
the
years
we
’
ve
seen
the
Raspberry
Pi
crammed
into
almost
any
piece
of
hardware
you
can
think
of
.
Frankly
,
seeing
what
kind
of
unusual
consumer
gadget
you
can
shoehorn
a
Pi
into
has
become
something
of
a
meme
in
our
circles
.
But
the
thing
we
see
considerably
less
of
are
custom
designed
practical
enclosures
which
actually
play
to
the
Pi
’
s
strengths
.
Which
is
a
shame
,
because

The
MutantC
features
a
QWERTY
keyboard
and
sliding
display
,
and
seems
more
than
a
little
inspired
by
early
smartphone
designs
.
You
know
,
how
they
were
before
Apple
came
in
and
managed
to
convince
every
other
manufacturer
that
there
was
no
future
for
mobile
devices
with
hardware
keyboards
.
Unfortunately
,
hacking
sessions
will
need
to
remain
tethered
as
there
’
s
currently
no
battery
in
the
device
.
Though
this
is
something
[
rahmanshaber
]
says
he
’
s
actively
working
on
.
p
>
<
p

The
custom
PCB
in
the
MutantC
will
work
with
either
the
Pi
Zero
or
the
full
size
variant
,
but
[
rahmanshaber
]
warns
that
the
latest
and
greatest
Pi
4
isn
’
t
supported
due
to
concerns
about
overheating
.
Beyond
the
Pi
the
parts
list
is
pretty
short
,
and
mainly
boils
down
to
the
3D
printed
enclosure
and
the
components
required
for
the
QWERTY
board
:
43
tactile
switches
and
a
SparkFun
Pro
Micro
.
Everything
is
open
source
,
so
you
can
have
your
own
boards
run
off
,
print
your
case
,
and
you
’
ll
be
well
on
the
way
to
reliving
those
two
-
way
pager
glory
days
.

We
’
re
excited
to
see
where
such
a
well
documented
open
source
project
like
MutantC
goes
from
here
.
While
the
lack
of
an
internal
battery
might
be
a
show
stopper
for
some
applications
,
we
think
the
overall
form
factor
here
is
fantastic
.
