Realtek 8723bu is a singe chip solution for wifi & bluetootn 4.0, http://www.globalsources.com/gsol/I/USB-Bluetooth/p/sm/1133914681.htm
Linux kernel 4.6 has been add driver support for 8723bu,but I could not find the appropriate driver in rpi-4.6.y branch.If the kernel of Rpi supports 8723bu, you can make the old version of Raspberry Pi re- utilized, and is compatible with raspberry pie 3 applications.in the future, the official Raspberry Pi kernel will add support 8723bu do ?
Currently, I'm using this driver: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723bu
