 ok i spoke to diarmuid, the delay was... ok, i'll email you off-list,
they're used to dealing with 10k+ runs, basically, and are puzzled by
the small quantity (for the initial experimental first run of MEBs+CPU
Cards).  also as it's such a small quantity, they have to send them to
a distributor, who then has to send them to the people you want to
order from, and *eventually* you'll get them.

 ... we need to talk about this :)  but, off-list ok?

 you've got at least one sample though, right?  joe didn't you order a
few a while back?  if you're *really* stuck, chris i have one here
