And you’ll easily be able to order one any time you want but still need to hunt websites like you are looking for a console on release day to get the actual raspberry pi.

If it's for schools you can reach out to the raspberry pi company directly and often they will make some available to you, after proof it is for school/learning. At least this is something I remember reading some time ago. Worth an email to them at least.

It's worth an email but it looks like they've recently removed the "For Educators" section from the web site. Redding between the lines on their December supply chain blog update, I'm guessing they are reserving everything for industry needs and no longer guaranteeing stock for education.

I'd still fire off an email because it takes 10 minutes and they are wonderful learning tools.

Who cares, when you can't get a PI to save your life, what will I mount the camera to?

Ordered just the one from Pi Hut this morning and dispatched earlier today. One of the lucky ones!
