I have two Pi Zeros on order, and was very surpised to find that it no longer appears in the Farnell stock list! What has happened to it?

The whole thing looks like typical Raspberry Pi Org combination...
Contrast with launch of, for example, Amazon Fire Stick...
I've come to expect a launch fiasco with each new RasPi product. Perhaps they do it on purpose: make the new product hard to get so it becomes a Teddy Ruxpin or Tickle-Me Elmo, i.e., the must-have-but-impossible-to-get new toy of the season. Whatever. If you have a RasPi Zero project in mind, just use a RasPi A/B/A+/B+ to prototype it and by the time you have the code running you'll be able to get as many Zeroes as you want 
Amazon doesn't make any money unless people have the product in hand so they can order things they don't need. So there's a much bigger incentive to have product out there. Plus Amazon can afford to spend lots of money to build a large inventory.
JMO/YMMV
A collector's item now 
Even more so that it was sold by element14 ...
I should stick it on eBay for megadollars.
