Delivery date updates - slipping.

zardoz99

Just received another email from Farnell Uk.

 

Delivery date has slipped another 3 weeks, to mid May.

 

Now on nearly 50 days back-order.

 

Is everyone else seeing this?

  • My main bugbear is the lack of information from Farnell and RS. For example, having answers to the following questions would be most helpful:

     

    a) Why do the shipping dates keep slipping?

    b) How many RPi units do you have on order?

    c) How many companies are manufacturing the units?

    d) How many units do you anticipate receiving per month?

    e) When do you expect to receive the initial batch of 10,000 ?

    f) Why on earth am I having to ask these questions? YOU should be providing this information, we shouldn't need to ask.
