From Brian Dorey via raspberry pi pod:

With the release of the new Raspberry Pi Zero earlier this week we ordered one from The Pi Hut to use with our expansion boards (they all work without any problems) and one from Pimoroni to use with our barcode scanner project.

The new Raspberry Pi Zero W has built in Wi-Fi and so we thought this would be better than the USB dongle which we are using with the barcode scanner.

Upon receiving the new board we noticed that the Raspberry Pi foundation have left a space and jumper pad for a U.FL RF connector to use with an external antenna.
