</div> ok i spoke to diarmuid, the delay was... ok, i'll email you off-list,<br>
they're used to dealing with 10k+ runs, basically, and are puzzled by<br>
the small quantity (for the initial experimental first run of MEBs+CPU<br>
Cards). also as it's such a small quantity, they have to send them to<br>
a distributor, who then has to send them to the people you want to<br>
order from, and *eventually* you'll get them.<br>
<br>
... we need to talk about this :) but, off-list ok?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>No need, I already spoke to Diarmuid on the phone. I know what the delay was, and I'm in contact with the local distributor. :) </div>

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