Latest update on Raspberry Pi shipments, April 18

bluescreen

18 Apr 2012

Hi Everyone.

 

We're pleased to announce that we received our first batch of Raspberry Pi’s last Friday, April 13th. They were all shipped out over the next few days to customers across the globe-- to members in Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK, Ukraine, and the USA. (....and Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam - updated 19th April)

 

24 30 countries in all!

 

We expect to receive our next shipment early in the first week of May. Shipments will be made strictly in the order that commitments were received within each region-- Europe, Asia, and the Americas. We will send each of you an update email as soon as we can confirm your delivery date. (You'll also get an email letting you know when your unit actually ships!)

 

We're working hard to get your unit out to you, and will send you more information as soon as we get it-- we promise! image

 

We now have over 100,000 confirmed orders for the Raspberry Pi across the world. Everyone who ordered before 18th April will definitely receive their Raspberry Pi before the end of June. Those placing new orders from today can expect a July delivery.

 

Customised cases will soon be available for your Raspberry Pi’s! You'll soon see them here in the Raspberry Pi group. Also, check out our other Raspberry Pi resources, including: beginners guides, operating system downloads, unboxing videos, and other valuable info.

 

Thanks for all of your patience and enthusiasm!

    I ordered a RPi from Element14/Newark on March 12th after receiving an email saying I could do so.  I received an email around April 27th saying I was going to received my RPi until some unknown future date.  Then May 2nd I received another email suggesting that I may get one around the end of June.  Of course my order status still has a blank date.

     

    All the emails were polite and made it seem like I had won the jackpot.  "Yeah.  I'm lucky the delay is almost over.  Good news. I'll get one soon!".  Lucky me.

     

    I had almost forgotten about the RPi until my buddy emailed me telling me he had one.

     

    So ... really.  I'm not sure I know that I'll get one in June.  I just have a promise.

     

    And who cares anymore.  The excitement has worn off.  I'm done being hopeful.  It'll show up whenever it shows up.  Whatever.

    Я тоже в конце февраля заявку кинул (или в начале марта). Письмо с предложением предзаказа пришло только в начале апреля. По ссылке предложили указать размер подарочной футболки и ввести данные кредитки.

    Registered my interest in late February (or beginning of March). E-mail with link to preorder was received in beginning of April.

    P.s.: I'm from Belarus.
