Auch gerade eins schnappen können. Nummer 25009 
Bin gespannt, habe AA nicht wirklich genutzt, weil mir die Kabelstöpselei tierisch nervt.
As promised, here is the long awaited update.
After several rounds of chats with factory and suppliers we managed to get a decent production schedule. We will have another 6000 units manufactured this month, so all the orders up to ID-11110 can be completed from this manufacturing run. I will update you on the expected date of the units being completed, but it's to be expected towards the end of the month.
For April we have managed to secure components for 10K units, so contributions with ID between 11111 and 25021 will be manufactured and dispatched during April, again most likely towards the end of the month.
Beside the WiFi chip shortage we are facing a CPU shortage as well, it took quite a lot of convincing with RockChip to provide us enough CPUs to complete the backlog. One of the requirements was to use a different CPU for future productions, from which there is enough stock available.
This means while we are manufacturing the current pledges, we are also having to redesign the board and change the current CPU from RK3308 to RV1109. The new CPU is a massive overkill for our product, as is even the current one. But due to the shortage and lack of components, we have no real other choice then to go with this.
The raw components' material price also went up by almost 50%. We won't pass this on to the current backers, but we won't be able to keep the same price for new pledges either. All this being said, we are pretty positive about the supplies and lead times we managed to secure in current times.
