[BozemanLUG] Update on Raspberry Pi bulk order possibilities

[Scott Dowdle]

Greetings,

Our own Gary Bummer told me that he had read that for the first batch of 10,000 B units, that they weren't allowing bulk orders... and that it was going to be one per customer only.  So, that drives a wooden stake through the idea of us getting a batch order... although no one had actually stepped up with the cash and will to do it anyway.

In their latest blog post (http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/615) they say that the first batch should be finish on Feb. 20th and then rush shipped to the U.K. so they expect to be able to start selling them before then end of the month.  They even released an abbreviated data sheet on the Broadcom BCM2835 SoC as a 205 page PDF.

TYL,
