The published excerpt contains almost no product-level detail — no per-model pricing, no effective date, and no confirmation of which SKUs are affected beyond the headline figure. Why: If you are speccing Pi-based edge nodes, kiosks, sensor gateways, or classroom kits, re-run your bill of materials against a worst-case 23% uplift rather than your old quote, and decide now whether to buy ahead of the next increase. Because the article gives no per-model breakdown, do not assume the 23% applies to the SKU you actually order — check pricing at your supplier before committing to a fixed-price build. hardware raspberry-pi supply-chain edge-computing
