Have fun guys. Mine coming on Thursday. Pretty pleased with that. Something fun for my Friday afternoon off! 
Let us know how the build and install goes.
Mine (DIY kit) arrived a day early today in Austria 
So maybe some hope for all of you guys who are still waiting 
But i bought the storage and the ssd on other webistes. The ssd already arrived, but the storage is late and will only arrive in a few days⌠This is hard. Finally holding the framework in my hands but i canât do anything with it 
payment complete. DIY Edition R5 with a bunch of cards, headed for Australia. Exciting!
Payment this morning in Australia as well!

Finally! My money was taken! And on the same day, got the âPreparing your batchâ email for my Batch 9 order.
Mine arrived as well. Everything except the keyboard is working fine. For me, some of my keys - like âDâ, âreturnâ, etc. - are not working.
Got my laptop a day earlier in the netherlands then expected, niiiice. I want to instal my crucial ram, is it normal having to put 1 in upside down?
Yes, the instructions even say that.

Who reads instructions 
. But my laptop is working and im phyched!
So according to tracking the package made it from China to Cologne over night/in the morning, its supposed to arrive on Thursday. Now i got infected with Hopium that it might arrive tomorrow, would be actually better in my personal timetable. But also doubt in my heart starts to grow
- will kde neon actually work?
- will all parts be not bend
- will my parts (ram & ssd) work flawless?
- do i get the right ppdf/tpl config going so its actually as long lived as its supposed to be
- if not on power saverâŚdo i get the light mobile âgamingâ performance out of it and if yesâŚcan i juggle thos two states, power saving and performance without bricking the other one?
what i want to sayâŚits getting excitingâŚall over some random piece of hardware
Shipping notification for Australia tonight. Expected delivery on Monday.
After being stuck in Alaska since last Thursday, the laptop just arrived! Will assemble it later today!
Mine arrived today happy man, windows installed no drivers on yet, next is Linux mint (main os)
Not sure about the green chose it as my Fairphone 4 is greenđ, my youngest son helped me build it

Anyone elseâs tracking stuck in "International shipment release - Importâ in Anchorage since clearing customs yesterday? Figured I wouldâve seen some movement on it out of the facility by now but no update yetâŚ

Well, you are talking of running Linux Mint, so what other colour could you choose ???
Seems like mine was in the same shipment, but got delivered today. Maybe yours is going through a very different route?

The âInternational shipment release - Importâ is not stuck, the word âreleaseâ means it got released from customs at that time!
Sure, but Iâd expect to see shortly after something like âDeparted facilityâ indicating itâs made itâs way out of the facility in Alaska to me, but itâs âonlyâ released
