I think 3 is all we had of those modules, didn't buy too many incase
they didn't sell, personally i have switched to using the D1-Mini
boards as they are better spec and you don't have to make a pcb to
stick them to.  D1-Mini also has a Pro version available which has even
more flash and an external antenna socket

Handy list of all the module types available and their specs:

able

if you need that external socket, and want the plain module then the 07
is probably still best, they look to be around the £1.50 mark.
