Pi in Australia -very very soon

bodgy
bodgy over 13 years ago

I ordered somewhere close to 6am (4pm Qld time) on the 29th, and today my backorder has changed to processing, yeehaa, just waiting for my credit card to be charged and soon after ........ image

 

I shall be watching every Toll delivery that goes past me!

 

Little Jack Horner,

Sat in the corner,

Waiting for his Raspberry Pi,

Along came a van,

And out stepped a man,

Oh boy what happy man am I.

    Good luck to you. Here in the UK, I preordered mine on 3rd march. Mine also says processing.

    Congrats.

    I myself ordered at 22 minutes past the opening on the 29th and recieved an order confirmation number, the status still says 'Back Order' and always has.

    I asked where this put me in a queue but the assistant who replied was unable to give any indication of anything.

    I have only recieved the original email stating a thankyou for the order, nothing in relation to dates, anything changing or any updates..

    Quite disapointed really with their correspondance on the order, but still hopeful something might come of it.

     

    Good luck and all image

    The first handful can't be far off but I don't know that we can read a lot into that status change. There could be all sorts of reasons for the change other than it being close to shipping. I am on processing as well and got in about ten minutes before Craig, not that that will probably be enough for the first lot. It would be nice to get something this month but I have another Arm board to experiment and develop on and hopefully will be all the more ready when I get the target hardware.

     

    [EDIT: It turns out I was wrong. Mine shipped today 23/4.]

    Craig,

         I echo your sentiments.  I didn't get in within minutes of launch, though did get in around 8am on 29 Feb.  I still show back ordered. 

     

         The passage of real information is really lacking.

    All that I have seen have 17/3/2012 on them. I THOUGHT until now that the remaining digits are just a serial number for that day. What is your MAC address?

    Hmm, Linux isn't my strong point, I'm having difficulty getting Debian and Fedora to do what I want, the MAC address does scroll up when booting, I'll try and capture it later on and report it here.  No MAC masquerading mind you image

     

    Here it is 08:00:28:00:60:01. I'm not sure what that'll tell you apart from the MAC address. That is probably wrong, perhaps B0:27::EB:B9:0D::E5  is more likely.
