The first batch of Raspberry Pi computers are being issued to users.
A group of schoolchildren in Leeds are the first to get their hands on production models of the bare-bones computer.

Wonder who's going to be the first CF'er to get one?

Re: Raspberry Pi - a revolution?
I am not in the first 2k - but I did manage to get registered on both resellers early on the 'release day' so hopefully I'll be in the second batch

Re: Raspberry Pi - a revolution?
My order went through at 8.34am according to Farnell...
I supplied my card details at the time of ordering but they've not taken any money yet.
Maybe I'm still in the other 8k that's coming before full production.

I watched a video on the foundations page last night and the bloke from RS says at the moment there are around 250,000 people waiting for one from there! And that one is without the case. FAcgtor in Farnell and you're looking about 400,000 - 500,000 people waiting.
Wow, and to think originally the foundation were expecting 10 to 20 thousand in the uncased board sales.
