alt Hacker NewsThe first esp8266 I bought was as a dedicated wifi chip for an arduino (or something) project. I discovered after getting it, that it came with a 'free' MCU (that was default flashed with a UART/AT-command firmware to allow other MCUs to get wifi)

funny indeed, as the add-on card (esp8266) is a lot more powerful than an Arduino.
