Hope mine arrives soon, Devterm has gone back into a drawer while it waits for the cm4 adapter. It mostly functions now, just not sure the fan runs. And it only has the 4 lower power cores running, so what did I really get with the a06 core?
My order is like 285xx and still waiting, I got the batteries, the antena and two new USB ports for the first upgrade are comming too. I hope everything arrives soon.
Mine is 28285 placed on April 27, so I hope I will get it soon 
The last email I got from Alex he said this month woud be “most likely fullfiled” so I’m geting impatient, I been trying to not think about it but I found myself downloading the kali linux distro and flashing it in a card, designing a magnetic 3D printable front cover 
I allready have the components to make a dock port for monitor, mouse, keyboard and a wacom tablet. A new WiFi antena and two USB port to conect to the expansion board. The worst part is that I don’t think they ship my order this month because I haven’t read any shiping to México since the deb term was launched. But I want so much this device so I still wait.
Just got an email back from Alex and they said it would be 2 more batches before mine is ready to go. Let’s see how long it takes them to complete 3 batches.

Did you request a refund of the cm4?
okay, justed orded one today, 305xx, I guess i can forget about it for a while then…
I imagine it’s hard to give customers all the info they want, but it would be interesting if we had like… a queue for every combination and the order number (or some other ID) on each queue.
I wrote Alex asking about my order and he said it should be fulfilled in september (tho I didn’t received the shipping mail). I wonder if that’s based on the order number and the estimate of units per batch (regardless of specs) or if he had the chance to check where my order was in the queue.
Not complaining, but I can see why people gets frustrated by seeing orders 1000 numbers above theirs being shipped just after a short wait and they’ve been on queue for a year.
Soomething like “Oh they shipped: 300 silver, no core, wifi only; 50 black no core; 8 black CM4; one black CM4 Wifi-4G, we’te getting there!” would maybe alleviate the frustration

I used the data of no 4g, and made a estimation of my shipping time… not look good. The upper scatters are actually the order without cm4, shall I change my order to no cm4?

I tought the same thing but for me is difficult to import the cm4, is even more expensive to do it myself so I wait. If is not your case yes, a lot of peopple has done it and accelerate their shipping

Jesse,
Did you get your shipping notice yet?
My order number is 280xx and I was told on the 5th of Nov there is one batch in front of mine so it should ship very soon.
Very Respectfully,

I just checked and it seems like I do have several different versions of CM4 available to me. So I emailed Alex asking which model specifically the uconsole ships with - which is CM4104000 without eMMC, 4GB RAM. The “without eMMC” is important here because according to the forums you’d need special equipment in order to flash your system onto the eMMC as it wouldn’t boot from the SD card? Regardless, since there is a CM4 with 8GB RAM available for me, I modified my order to non-core version with 4G and and the price difference was promptly refunded.
Nope, nothing yet. I’ll be really surprised if it’s here by Christmas. I won’t be doing any more business with this company and I recommend finding resellers on AliExpress if you don’t mind paying $100 extra to get your uConsole in a reasonable amount of time.

Welp…So we went from There will be 4 more batches before yours to Your order will be in the next batch simply by removing the CM4 core from the order. So now I’m waiting for my bank to process the refund so I can get the CM4 module from vendor in my country. This leads me to believe that the main bottleneck is availibility of CM4 cores in wherever it is Clocwork is building their uconsole units. It’s unfortunate that they’re losing money that way but if you do have the possibility, you’re better off just getting the non-core version and getting the core somewhere else.
I’m really disaponted with them, I got the “two more baches before yours” but I haven’t seen any post of shipping notice in a long time. So I’m checking the scalpers and some more options, I was watching and the price in alliexpress is almost the same as a secon hand steamdeck, given the fact that I want to run kali linux both are nice options to me, the only backwards using a steamdeck may be the lack of keyboard and of couse my customers would think I’m less imoressive using a toy for my work, anyway wrote Alex some question so i think tomorrow I will make my choice.
Well turns out Alex made the choice for me and gave me my full refund notice and this anwer:
" Actually we just shipped 2 batches, and 1 more is coming up.
But since you have asked, I’d love to honor our promise and refund your order.
Shall be done by now."
I think “honor their word” would be just delivering the product instead, but who I am to judge? Anyway I don’t belive they had any intention to send me nothing or the answer would be diferent.
