Hello all. Was going through my inventory of Pis today and organizing based on model. I have two Zero 2 boards. However, on the back of one it is marked "Raspberry Pi Zero 2" and on the back of the other it is marked "Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W". One has a "W" and the other doesn't. Otherwise, they seem to be identical. I know previously the presence or absence of a "W" indicated its wireless capability, but I'm seeing from several sources that they did not make a Zero 2 without wireless. I can't find anything (probably because I'm bad at looking) that would indicate why one has the "W" and the other doesn't. My first thought was that it's the one without a "W" is a knockoff or something, but they both look truly identical, bearing the little RPi logo on the main chip, copyright markings for Raspberry Pi, etc. There are a couple markings that are different on the back between them, but nothing that would indicate to my untrained eyes that one of them is a knockoff. Any ideas?
