Walking out of my midden heap/den/computer room just now to take my nightly pills and get ready to catch a few, I spied a box with some r-pi packaging in it, and halfway to the bottom of the box was a brand new, still sealed in the pink bag, 5i25 with a full height backplate. So that one will get tested tomorrow. A sticker even says it already has the correct firmware loaded.
