Parallella Community

Hi guys...

How are the builds going? Are the most recent shipping dates (04/30/14 for 7020, 05/15/14 for 7010) still looking good? How far in advance are shipping notifications sent out?

We haven't had an update in a while, and I just want to make sure that I should still be expecting to receive my 7020 boards very soon.

I'm planning a serious porting party for the first full week of May.

Thanks...

I am backer #3858 and my two Parallellas will be prepared for shipment sometime next week. (Thanks for the info Diana!)

I dont think daily forum posts are needed but it would be nifty if there was some kind of counter on the page/forum that indicated the last backer number shipped out and some info on which days things are shipped. I think it may pacify many eagerly waiting backers.

Agreed - ANY information would be nice. For that matter, a timely response would be nice. As far as daily updates, that was the commitment made by Andreas - it didn't come from me. I'd be happy just knowing that the production process is still on track. It seems to me that it would be horrendously simple to just provide a brief update every few days. Based solely on past performance, whenever communication stops, there are problems.

I received my GPIO breakouts today - it would be really nice to know when I'll have something to plug them into. The little buggers were expensive - $85 each!

At this point, I sincerely hope post-sales communication from Adapteva is better than the pre-sales communication. It certainly can't get any worse.

Wait a minute - the prior update said ALL 7020 boards will ship on 04/30. Reading the Kickstarter update, it says Kickstarter boards will be sent to the "shipping partner" by the end of next week.

Where does this leave people that preordered boards, but didn't use Kickstarter? Did we just get another bait-and-switch?

I need to know when MY boards will ship. If "ALL 7020 boards" doesn't include preordered 7020 boards, WHEN WILL THEY ACTUALLY SHIP???? I guess I need to go back to the dictionary for the definition of "all"...

Received my shipping notification last night. I'm 3762 and was a 64-core/2x 16 core backer so I'm receiving the two 16 core plus some other stuff I ordered. I really don't have a plan for either of my boards.

My order is #3394, could you tell me when the board will be shipped.
