Gertboard availability?

I have just had this reply from Farnell:

" Thank you for your enquiry. Unfortunately we are not taking any new orders for the Gertboard at present as this one is going discontinued. We have a new Gertboard that will be launched shortly updates on this will be available through the element14 website."

AFAIK it's only just been released so are Farnell right, or are they behind the times ?

Ok so I recieved a raspberry pi instead of a Gert Board, I was told that some one would contact me about it, I have recieved a RMA and a shipping label but was told to hold off untill contacted. When is some one going to get ahold of me??? this RMA is only good for 30 days........

Me too.
I received a Pi instead of a Gertboard and my order was marked as Complete (completely incorrect).
The message is that back-ordered Gertboards will be sent, so how am I to get back my back-order?
Mostly I'd like information on what's happening. I've been charged for a Gertboard and the only way I'll
get my money back is to return the Pi. Seems either way that I won't get a Gertboard.

Check the order status on the back-ordered GertBoard.
It should have an estimated shipping date.
You are probably in the queue to get the GertBoard.
I cannot be sure until you (and I) actually get it.

My order has a "Complete" status, so unless they can put it back on "back-ordered" status, I may not be getting one.
I just spoke with Customer Service, and the new part number they have isn't yet working. They'll contact me when
they have information. It sounds like no one has much information as to what's going on. They were however very
pleasant and working hard to figure things out.
