How about posting confirmation numbers when people receive their R-Pi's. That should give us some idea of expected delivery time.
Example: My Conf # is 191353. I saw a post that 160xxx has received his. That gives me about 31K to go.

I'm in exactly the same situation. Also got that mail, contacted them before and they told me everything is fine.
Haven't heard in months now, nothing is payed yet.
I have no idea if my order will come through or not.
Paul,
Being in the USA should be no problem. I think you may be confused by
the confusing branding: element14, newark, premier farnell.
Element14 is supposedly the umbrella brand, and the element14 twitter
account should work fine for resolving ordering problems anywhere in
the world. All who have tried have reported being pleasantly surprised.
btw, the element14 twitter people are in Chicago.

Order Confirmation Number: 170xxx
Old Expected Ship Date: 16 Aug 2012 (like everyone else)
New Expected Ship Date: 13 June 2012
So, it moved to 29 May the next day (18 May)
and then back to 8 June today (25 May)
.
...and now to 18 June (26 May)

Stop the roller coaster; I wanna get off!
John,
don't rely on the newark ship dates. The only reliable dates are coming
from the element14 twitter account.
I ordered on the 9th of march, and my order is still marked , "Pending". According to the web site, this means order received.
I haven't even made it to "Received" where I get assigned an order number...
I haveno idea what my expectation should be.
When you are asked to pre-order, I think you should have a way of tracking the order better than this.
It is also inconvenient to not know to the nearest month when the charge will hit your account.
