LaunchPad Arrived!

Mine arrived Aug/18/2010. Ordered it about June 25. The IDE is a big download 390meg zipped.

Last week, after trying to

Last week, after trying to check on the long back-ordered TI Launch Pad via their website, I discovered that they now force you to register on the site to check your order status. However, since my order was placed before registering, my order number was not associated with my account. This is what we call a Catch-22, or Snafu, or totally FUBAR.

So I sent a somewhat angry email to TI support. Lo and behold, they responded late yesterday and have just now shipped it out. I should have it today or tomorrow.

With my very first Arduino already shipped and on its way from China, I am about to seriously expand my experience beyond the Picaxe. Wish me luck.

Your lucky IG

OMG your lucky - I just checked today and was told that mine is more than 2 months away!

Australia seems to be the back end of the world (and Perth the backend of Oz!)

Original order was 29th June.!  Looks like TI don’t want to work with Australians

Digikey shipped the day after I ordered…or they say they did. I’ll believe it when I get it.

You can go to the TI Web

If you ordered directly from TI, you can go to the TI Web store, or email [email protected]. It will help a lot if you have your order number.

My account says i havent

My account says i havent placed a order before, i think i placed the order without creating a account, so with their new system i cant see the status of my order. But they did just charge my account today, maybe that means its shipped?

Are you caught in the same

Are you caught in the same SNAFU I was? If so, email and complain. It worked for me! I got it within a couple of days. Of course, perhaps that was a coincidence and I would have received it anyway.  I doubt it, though.
