[Microbit-Python] Pointers on connecting microBit to the outside world

[Loop Space]

I second this.

One use of Bluetooth would be to get information off the microbit and 
onto a computer.  All processing could be done by the computer so the 
microbit wouldn't have to have extensive capabilities.  This would still 
be possible with reduced capability, if such were possible.
