ok couldn't quite find the right message so just replying to this one: i spoke to my contact at freescale, he says that yes it _is_ available from mouser, digikey, freescale themselves and others - it's just in quite high demand, and the lead time is approximately 7 weeks at the moment. so that roughly corresponds (right now) with the date you saw on the web site, 30th may, phil. but yes - order one now, get one in 7 weeks. popular little buggers :) same price as the beagleboard-xm, but has 1gb RAM instead of 512mb. l. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
