After waiting for weeks and weeks to hear from Allied, I ordered a Pi from Newark after seeing that they had a limited supply. I had hoped that maybe it would be here in a couple weeks.
I ordered yesterday morning and was amazed that it was delivered to my house this afternoon. It doesn't hurt that their warehouse is only a few hours away.
If they still have some in stock, go for them!
P.S. - It's the 512 Model B

Re: US Stock at Newark
I ordered one this afternoon from them and it is shipping tomorrow.
When I ordered it, it said qty available 0, but it has always said that when I have ordered them.

they're still using the cheapo bubblevelope things, but at least this time it wasn't badly crushed.

Re: US Stock at Newark
I kept typing in their URL and was getting a site down error all day. I decided to hit refresh and it pulled up. Must have been down shortly, and I was just pulling from cache ever since then.
As an aside, they have the most adorable dog for their error page. I saved a copy of it to use as a wallpaper on my desktop.
