Also got my batch 9 prep email
I think the earthquake probably delayed things by possibly 1 day which is incredible considering how bad it was.

UPDATE 4-5-2024: Batch 9 Emails Sent
Batch 9 just got their preparation emails today, now it’s the waiting game for them! I’ve also started graphing the batch-to-batch timing on the Deltas Chart (counting days from batch N-1 to batch N prep emails), so we can better see those intervals. Besides the two outliers early in production, FW has recently been keeping stable on the 5 business days interval they targeted in the eighth shipment update.
Deltas Chart
The overlapping trendlines from the last graph are fixed thanks to batch 9 pulling down the prep email line with only 5 days between batch 8’s email and batch 9’s email. The new batch-batch delta has a downward turn at the end, but that’s an artifact of the moving average letting go of the delta from batch 6.
Average Email-Card Delta: 4.1
Average Card-Arrival Delta: 3.3

Just posted my weekly summary on Reddit, and I’ve got a little prediction for future batches: If the timings stay consistent, the current batch live on the FW16 order page, batch 19, could be getting their prep emails near the start of June!

Next email and next week at home?
I like it that the chart shows you will be charged before the preperation email after batch 13.

Yeah, that leaves me (batch 13) just a few minutes to transfer some money from my savings account, after the mail arrives.

Batch 8 getting shipping emails

Based on this data it looks like it’ll be ramping up faster still, but I guess we’ll need to wait for people to get their laptops from 10-12 to get a better idea for later batches. It’s going to be close for me in batch 18 to get it before the last week of may, likely won’t happen, but I’m hoping.

Well, based on the charts around it looks like batch 12 will get the prayer email, I mean preparation email at the end of April, so you be in with a chance for the end of May.

UPDATE 4-10-2024: Batch 8 Early Arrival & Batch 10 Prep Email
A few people got their batch 8 laptops yesterday with surprisingly fast shipping, hopefully the rest of the laptops arrive soon! Batch 10 also just got their batch preparation emails today!
Deltas Chart
This delta was 4 days, so the average card-arrival delta has been pulled up by one point.
Average Email-Card Delta: 4.1
Average Card-Arrival Delta: 3.4

Hopefully batch 10 getting prep emails means those of us in batch 9 will get charged/shipped soon. I’m checking my bank account like crazy for the charge. Anticipation is killing me.

I think you can definitely stop worrying about that.
I was Batch 3 and still check this thread about once a week, just out of curiosity

Same here as a Batch 1 user. It’s interesting to see the ramp up (batch 1 was a bit of a mess ito timing) and how nicely consistent it has become.
Good to see that Framework is in their stride.
