I suppose you might not want to give up your secrets, but anyone have a good place to source raspberry pis from in the US?

Everytime I see cool projects like this on HN I go to try to find some and get disheartened by month or 2 ship times.

are all on wayyyy backorder. :(

and the sellers on amazon are way overcharging.

Fry's doesn't seem to have them?

mcmelectronics, element14, and adafruit all have 3-5 day ship times.

you can also buy on amazon.com if you don't mind paying a premium for faster delivery.

pretty much everyone sells the rpi now, it's not hard to find. you might even find it at your local fry's.

man I am out of date. it had been a while since I'd looked! Thanks so much
element14 is always on backorder, but that doesn't mean you'll need to wait. They make 4000 rpi boards per day.
