The Punch Through team is aiming to change that with their BLE enabled LightBlue Cortado, which allows you to develop Arduino applications wirelessly from nearly any platform (iOS, Android, Mac, Windows). To illustrate this fact, they claim that you’ll be able to use it right away upon delivery – without even opening the box.
