> Testing FTDI Solution
75-
76-
Thanks to a recent contribution, we will be testing out the replacement of the CP2104 USB to UART bridge IC with an FTDI FT232RL IC
77-
78-
The FTDI IC is more hand solder friendly than the CP210x QFN series

A **new** *Game Boy Pocket* footprint based on the [ESP32 Wrover](https://www.espressif.com/en/products/hardware/esp32/overview) from [Espressif Systems](https://www.espressif.com)
89-

### Why?
91-
92-
We love [Hard Kernel](https://www.hardkernel.com/) and their amazing product base including the [Odroid GO](https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-go/)
93-
94-
We wanted to design, build and solution on trusted ***<abbr title="System on a Chip"><u>SoC</u></abbr>***. The ESP32 Wrover was selected for ease of use and extensive build tools available across all development platforms

### What?
97-
98-
The **Gaboze Express** is intended as an educational *'toy'* for the world of **Makers**
