    Are you sure they're sold out on farnell?

    About an hour ago when I first got on, it said awaiting delivery, 30 days.

    So that was probably like that from the beginning.

    Managed to order one anyways.

    Same here, just got my 3rd e-mail which has the PDF of the order attached, which says stock allocated.

    Now I wonder if that means we bought one of the 10K, or are we on some pre-order list.

    They did tweet that they farnell were sold out "apparently" after a half an hour but I'm not sure what the story is.

    Well according to the latest tweet, we'll have a second chance of buying from RS at the end of the week.

    Not quite the launch the team were expecting on RS! :p

    That's pathetic though.
    I was on the checkout ready to click confirm order when the thing first went down. by the time it came back up the cart was empty.

    Really badly organised if you ask me. I know its the partner sites that are having the problems and not the Rasp Pi foundation itself, but if I was selling something as crazy popular as this I'd have wanted load tests done on the server before I pick a partner to prove they could handle the massive increase in bandwidth over such a short period of time.

    Might grab a coffee now as I had less than my usual 4 hours sleep last night :o

    Page timing out and you reloading which is adding multiple boards to the order?
    Happened to me earlier.
    I really wasn't happy putting my cred card details in to be honest as the site was so shaky. But I really wanted that board :rolleyes:
