Received an email from Newark/Element14 stating that I would receive the Rasberry Pi from their shipping during the week of June 18... I had ordered back on the original intro date.

I pretty much knew going into this that it could take a while to recieve my Raspberry Pi. I have not planned any projects around it because of this. It will get here when it gets here and then I will start to tinker. Although it is good to know that it will be here much quicker than expected.

I've just received the same notice.. week of June 18th. 15% discount on accessories. My original order confirmation was 677XX. August dates have not changed - reason finally explained. . . "not updated". Think I'll just sit back and chill now )

Pjc123,

Thanks for the pointers but I've been all over my order page including following the PO Number link. It's always been blank in the Ship Date field. Even now with the recent message, still blank though I recognize they aren't updating this till units arrive.

Received the same e-mail at 4:55PM eastern (3 hours ago). I ordered it on Feb 29. I'm in the USA.

1) Kevin Foss Wrote "My order status still shows back-ordered and I ordered from Newark on Launch Day (29 Feb)".

You need to click on the "PO Number" to get your "Expected Ship Date", otherwise all you will see is "back-ordered". I did notice that this does not work or is very slow for me sometimes in the Windows 9 Browser, so I use Firefox to get the date. My ship date has been August for some time, but read below why that date has not changed.

2) However, I just received an email from Newark Element14 a couple of minutes ago. I ordered directly from them on the launch date as well, and I am also located am located in North America (USA to be exact):

Just got email update from Newark/element14. The email says that

-------------------------------

"your Raspberry Pi will be delivered in an upcoming shipment beginning the week of June 18th". We will have your firm delivery date, after manufacturer confirmations are made, on Newark.com

The delivery date reflected in your order history on www.newark.com will not update until stock is received in our warehouses."

------------------------------

my order date was : Mar 01 2012

order confirmation no : 1773xx

So assuming they get their stock in time (which looks like a certainty), and ship my RPi during the June 18th week, I should get it by June 30. Sounds like they are trying hard to hit the June end date

Hi Guys,

I ordered the afternoon (12:05pm) of Feb. 29th. At first I got a confirmation saying May 10th delivery - then I received the August what-ever mess. I've called a couple of times and have done the live chat. . . thinking that I should be up for delivery. I'm told it shouldn't be long but I cannot get any kind of confirmation. Have not heard from either USA or GB. Frustrating. Have had my SD card loaded with Debian squeeze, just waiting on the mail delivery. . .now I'm thinking I should be in the next batch, who knows. . . I don't think they are very coordinated in Raspberry land. If I didn't find the entire thing so interesting I'd cancel. We just need to hang in!

I'm also in Canada and I ordered the morning of Feb29th.

I've heard absolutely nothing from Newark/Element14 since placing my order. My order date has bounced like everyone elses with all the delays and continues to show an August ship date.

It seems everyone else is getting feedback and updated ship dates except Canadians.

I'm frustrated and disappointed with the complete lack of feedback regarding all the delays. This really isn't acceptable IMHO.

I'm in Canada and ordered March 1st.

I had a address change since I moved, I e-mailed and asked them to update my address, which they said they did, but on the internet order history it still reports old address... I don't know if this has anyhting to do with anything on my side...

Anyways, I'm still showing a August delivery date, and have NOT received a delivery confirmation e-mail. So I'm in the same boat as you... I hope that when mine does ship, it actually goes to the address it's supposed to, lol
