Hello Robert,

We are working on the same project.

---> with a Waveshare board...

Which one ?

---> and likely a Pi Zero 2 W.

After having looked for a better SOC we have ended using the Pi Zero 2W.
For a start it's ok. Even though there aren't so many alternatives at the
moment. Are you a developer ? Tell me something more about your technical
choices. Which display do you want to use ?
