Notices relating to back ordered products usually take a few days. Just keep an eye out for an email with the subject "Urgent Order Information" or similar from Farnell. It will be updated eventually, can just take a while with so many orders to process. Farnell should be in touch if there is anything wrong with your order. Just be patient, you will get your Raspberry Pi soon (My current estimated delivery is May, hardly surprising with such huge demand)

You will find that these forums aren't the best place to get status on your orders. For that you will need to use the "contact us" link on the website you used for your purchase. You will likely need to provide your order number for reference.

I will say that I ordered on 29 Feb as well and have asked "Newark" (farnell's north American partner) the same questions as you but have not had much success in getting a response.

I called Farnell (I'm in the UK) and they explained to me that they are waiting on updates from the foundation. My order went from an 'order expected on...' to 'back order' which is what prompted my call. I would suggest you call wherever you placed the order and speak to them. I am sure at the moment you have seen there were problems with the network connector on the first 10,000 boards and that may have a knock on impact on subsequent manufacture if they can't source the correct parts in the numbers required. I think my order was originally expected in late April and I ordered on 29th February.

You can also try checking on line.

Hope this helps.

I have been registering my interest twice with same email. First time it was the first weekend after 29th and second time 5 days ago. I never got any confirmation email. Sad thing is, that all of my friends could already order. I gave them the link just after my first registration. (Sure I checked also spam).
