Release of preboxed version ?

Thu May 17, 2012 8:24 am

Although I'm dead keen to get my hands on a Pi to play with, there's no (imminent) light at the end of the tunnel regarding my RS order, so I was wondering when the Pi in a case, aka education release on the faq, might be available ?

People that registered around the time of the launch should be supplied by end of June (ish). I suspect cases will take longer. Why wait - dive in and join the fun!

Once the current backorder has been forfilled it shouldn't be too long before they start stock piling the educational unit.
The cases (I suspect) will be moulded plastic which is far quicker and cheaper to produce then the unit itself.
