So who managed to get a Raspberry Pi today? Those that pre-registered
were emailed and told to look at the website at 6am this morning.
Armed with tea I refreshed both myself and my browser until the site
kicked in on the dot of 6 and was told to order from Premier Farnell
or RS. Mad rush to Farnell, logged in with my account details and
bang, the site melted. Decided to try a phone order. Phone sales
kicked in at 8am. Managed to talk to someone at 8.08am and in theory
I have got one. I was told none are actually shipping until after
March 12th. They only arrived in the UK on Monday and they'd need to
test them.
It's great that they have a done a deal with major distributors to
manufacture and supply - they can match the huge demand and
manufacture accordingly. Shame it cannot be made in the UK.
Awesome little device. Hopefully it will change the world.
