CircuitPython ESP32-S3 HackTablet Give Away

Exciting things are ahead for CircuitPython, some work on the cutting edge of the ESP32-S3 port of CircuitPython is adding support for the S3s built-in LCD periphrial to display graphics with displayio APIs.

This functionality is being tested initially on some Hack Tablets made from discontinued corporate meeting room control panels and ESP32-S3 Dev Kit N8R8 devices. Thank you to Kmatch (Kevin Matocha) for providing the tablets for the giveaway, and doing the initial work to add support for them to the CircuitPython core.

There are five (5) extra of these Hack Tablet devices that will be made available to other members of the community in this give away.
