I have the same question! I don't really understand where this could be usable and I would rather see the pi foundation use their resources to upgrade and sell

  Linked through this post is a blogpost about using them in space: https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/compute-module-cubesats/ https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/compute-module-cubesats/ The compute module exists due to customer demand - the regular Pi is not so easy to embed in another device.

    That doesn't seem to be the point of these though. They seem to be intended to use in products (and it's still a bit too expensive and unreliable to make that feasible)

  Right? The price difference between this and a Pi Zero or Omega2 is huge!

    The Pi Zero is a lower specced device (comparable to the first RPi rather than the third one).
