This is weird.. I placed an order with element 14 and I received the RPi in less than 3 weeks. To be honest I am a little bummed as I got mine less than a month ago .. and I have the 256MB one... Could have done with 512
Farnell (element14) have generally been very good with fulfilment of orders, RS not so much. Got my e14 in 5 weeks (ordered at release), RS one never came after months so cancelled it.
Well I guess I might as well just order a new 512 with element14 (I wish I knew about those guys).
Mine didn't ship at all with RS Components (+4 months waiting) then I complain on twitter to @RSComponents, 3 hours later I get an email from RS saying that my order just shipped... This is last SATURDAY! - so no 512 version :(
A couple hours later I get a reply from RS to my tweet saying: "Our records show that yours shipped LAST FRIDAY".
And now I still have to wait 21 more days until it arrives. Maybe if I order right now from element14, it may arrive earlier?!
