[chbot] Adafruit ESP8266

[Mark Beckett]

Adafruit have attached one to an add-on board with regulator, buttons 
and level conversion for USD$9.95
http://www.adafruit.com/products/2471

These have FCC approval which while the others might meet, it gives some 
reasurance that it isn't going to destroy your WiFi network (or the 
neighbours)

As with other Adafruit products they have some good/easy to follow 
guides to using it.
