You're so lucky, no more available! I just have to wait... :(

Hmm it seems that the next produced will be the A model : no ethernet and no HDMI.  :telloff:

Hope to get the B one soon...

143 days lead time for mine, up from 66 when I ordered it on 6th March!  And there have been problems with the ethernet port on the first batch.

Look at it the way I do Jim.. buy a case and you'll be able to pretend you've got one.

And hopefully they'll have all the problems ironed out by the time you get it.

I'll wait until the supply more closely matches demand.

Building a case will be fun.

I can see this being a great little demoscene device for GL stuff as it brings back a cheap, unified widely available fixed performance platform that can be pushed.

I've got one on order with RS, and one with Farnell :)

I plan to develop any effects on windows and have #ifdef's to make it work / scale to the pi.

Same here.  My delivery date is estimated to be in May - it's going to be great to have a static and affordable platform to develop for again :)

I saw some glsl scripting on the raspberry here.
Seems like that thing is more interesting than I thought...

outside the price and size the GPU is the killer feature really..

they officially claim the gpu is twice as powerful as the one in an iphone 4s

Are you coming to Sundown this year Hotshot?
I'm hoping to take mine along if I get it in time.. Should be a lot easier to transport than my desktop.
