My laptop is running Ubuntu 20.04, but it will be the same on Windows or macOS. Once we connect the board to the host computer it should show up as the RPI-RP2 drive in your computer. Connecting Raspberry Pi Pico W to your computer

The pinout is the same as the first RP2040 board, and clearly marked on the bottom side of the board. Just like its predecessor, the board is tiny, and The board I received was cut from a 480-unit reel, and I also got a one-meter long micro USB to USB cable, which should probably not be included by default for people ordering the $6 board.

The company sent me a sample for review/evaluation, and I’ll focus on the WiFi part since the Raspberry Pi Pico W supports the same MicroPython and C/C++ SDKs as for the Raspberry Pi Pico board plus additional APIs for wireless connectivity.

Raspberry Pi Trading announced the Raspberry Pi Pico W board basically based on the same design as the original Raspberry Pi Pico board with RP2040 dual-core Cortex-M0+ microcontroller but adding a wireless module with WiFi 4 and Bluetooth LE 5.2, although the latter is not enabled on the board at this time.
