I wanted to make a blog post about the BBBW, and needed an image to use.
For sanity sake, I recommend that people do not make a Google image search for BBBW at work. Definitely NSFW!

Haha, I usually search for "beaglebone black wireless" I'm glad I never did look for BBBW ;)

I have been using the BBB image and haven't installed the BBBW one, everything works correctly as far as I could tell. I asked in another thread what the difference was, but didn't get a response.

BBB = BeagleBone Black.
BBBW = BeagleBone Black Wireless.
If you have a BBB device, then yes, I imagine either image works. But if you have a BBBW device, then you'll need the "wireless" build which contains the necessary drivers and related files to support bluetooth and wifi.

difference between the IOT images marked for BBB or BBBW..
However for the oem/manufactures there's a big difference on what
happens on first bootup. ;) (initial eeprom writing..)
