I am really enjoying using my Raspberry Pi, its great fun tinkering with the Linux and getting XMBC working and yesterday RS Components starting taking orders for the Pi from users that pre-registered on the original release date.  RS say that some 100,000 ordered on the first day and they expect boards will be shipped June and July.

Did I order when I got the email from RS? Of course I did!

Comments via RaspberryPi.org:

Hi Everyone. Just a quick update for you on the information Liz posted here on Friday.

As promised last week, we have started inviting the next customers in our queue to place their orders for a Raspberry Pi. Delivery dates for these orders will be through June and July.

By this time next week we expect to have invited everyone that registered for a Raspberry Pi with RS on the first day – some 100,000 of you – to place your order. We’ll also have an update on expected availability for those left in the queue.

As always we will be regularly updating our FAQs and sending further updates to Liz to put on the Raspberry Pi website.

Best wishes

Jo & all the RS Raspberry Pi Team
