See the urge is actually not that strong, you might as well order and wait.
 
If you are going to order one, avoid RS components like the plague. Farnell shipped 3 days after my order, and to be fair to them I had order on a Friday afternoon... they shipped the device on Monday. I had my device a week later.

I believe RS component 'may' ship my device I ordered 3 months ago, next week :(

Do you have a link maybe? Is there a South African order page, or did you use the UK one? I have also been pondering getting a RPi :D

EDIT:
Ugh, under "Select Country", South Africa not there :(. OK, go to "Other", then get diverted to "Electrocomp Express". Looks promising so far... Scratch that, seems everything is "Out of Stock" :(

R1,000 is a fair price. It includes the case. I'll even throw in the power supply, hdmi cable and an 8 Gb SD card.

Raspberry Pi with SD card + Casing + Power Cable + HDMI = R650 - any takers?

I'm based in CPT though...

Thanks for the info, ill have a look at them when i order one and hopefully they will have stock. Everybody is complaining about RS components, i wonder if the issue is with them or stock availability in general.

Yeah out of stock, its a pity because that package for R850 seems decent but you probably could complete the package cheaper if you buy the components locally.

Thanks man, it is a good price considering the availability of the Pi's, however i found a few guys willing to sell them cheaper. But thanks anyway appreciate the offer.

You can order through Electrocomp locally, they are the official Farnel disties in SA.
