Raspberry Pi set to ship in days
RS Components and element14 have taken delivery of the first batch of Raspberry Pi, the £22 credit card sized computer board aimed at inspiring the next generation of programmers.
According to a statement, the first models have been checked, CE marked, packaged, and handed over to both companies for shipping. Customers should receive their order in sequence according to the time they first registered their interest.
Glenn Jarrett, head of electronics marketing at RS, said, "We are delighted to have the first batch of fully compliant products in our warehouse and to be able to invite the first wave of customers who registered for a Raspberry Pi to place their orders from this initial stock.
"There has been a great deal of anticipation for Raspberry Pi since its launch at the end of February, and it is important that we provide a delivery guarantee to customers when they place their order."
