You could think of the digit as the least significant digit of the SoC. We could make them -7240 and -7241 instead of -v0 and -v1 to be slightly clearer what the names mean, but that seemed ugly. And, no, as far as I know, the SoC is not indicated on the exterior of the device at all. The user will have to figure out the right version to use somehow. > > Best > > Adrian > >
