I'm a born and raised San Franciscan and have been working for SparkFun Electronics in various roles since 2011.
I build models, I like to go on hikes, and relax by sitting in from of campfires.

You should see it in your inbox now! If it didn't arrive correctly, we've updated our RPi5 Shipping Update Page with the same information.
It will be safe to expect future updates near the end of the month now that we are receiving regular shipments from Raspberry Pi rather than the expected beginning of the month.
Hello 1854082!
Just this week, we have begun to receive shipments from the Pi Foundation to fulfill a chunk of backorders for the Pi5 boards and our Pi5 kits.
Starting next week and again in January and as we advance, you can expect Monthly Updates from us in the first week of each month. As a reseller of Pi boards, we cannot guarantee exact quantity numbers or ship dates, and some months, we may not have much to report on at all, but these emails will contain that information.
(I also apologize for any repeated information. We're just trying to respond to as many people as we can)
Hopefully, this helps!
Hello 1854082!
Simply put, we were not giving updates on Raspberry Pi 5 orders because we did not have much information to share and we have a very small Customer Service team that has been inundated with questions about the Raspberry Pi 5 and their order statuses. Just this week, we have begun to receive shipments from the Pi Foundation to fulfill a chunk of backorders for the Pi5 boards and our Pi5 kits.

Hopefully, I could shed a little light on the situation!
