FYI: At about 1:30pm EST I received a notice from
RS/Newark that they were
accepting orders for the RPi in the US. Within 1/2 hour their server was
down. And, no, I didn't make it. Got as far as setting up the shopping
basket and went bye, bye.
Methinks they may have received a lot of responses.

I just submitted my order to RS, after getting emails from Farnell
first (this morning) and RS later. RS is slightly cheaper, at least
to France (where I am now). Just under 31 GBP once all was said and
done, whereas Farnell would have come out to about 35 or 36 GBP.
Maybe I just got lucky...
