Back-Compatibility note: The Raspberry Pi 2 Model B has the same footprint and layout as the previous Model B+ version, so will fit all Model B+ items.

Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Features:
As expected very useful for iot and interment . And fast delivery on the time :)
2nd Pi for me, a great step up on my OG Model. Currently using OSMC - Check it out OSMC.tv Great Service from Pi-Supply!
I first ran it with Openelec with the Kodi media player. Superb. Then I made an alternative SD card using Raspbian 1.5. Now it's also a useful web browser. I also bought the touch screen and frame also highly recommended. Only problem is that the web browsers I have tried can't play videos on the Internet (either they play badly or not at all). That is just a software problem as Xodi (installed using OpenElec) plays Youtube videos well.
I have my Pi, running Max2play after trying a few different music players like volumio and Rune Audio. It works fantastically. I know its lame but I have to take 1 star off for the Pi not having an off/on/reset button. It is annoying to have to have it always on or log in with ssh or an app to turn it off without risking SD card corruption. It couldn't blow out the cost that much to add this feature!
