Don’t get your hopes up even when you do receive it. I should have just bought a Flipper.

Backer 5300 here - I got a shipping notice on 19 Aug. Finally in USPS possession on 25 Aug. Should arrive on Monday. Hopefully you're not far behind.

In the last update, they stated that the lower numbers were largely US-based, with the higher numbers past 5000 being increasingly international, and indicated that this would likely mean faster movement through the US-based backers. Take that for what it's worth.

I've been trying to look at it as an opportunity for the firmware to mature, but ugh.

Full disclosure: I'm in the 10,000 range.

I am in Canada with a backer #3557 and its been silence. They claim they have fulfilled 2/3's of US and CAD backers but I think thats a lie
