I ordered mine at the beginning of August 2021. Still waiting for it to show up :-)

They sent out an email recently that said what wave you were in and a list of when the waves were expected to ship. I ordered mine at the very end of July '21, practically the first day iirc, and I'm wave 2 which is supposed to be this quarter.

  How do you know Wave 2 is this quarter?

    All I've seen was this tweet thread: https://twitter.com/playdate/status/1516099269979262976 https://twitter.com/playdate/status/1516099269979262976 Basically, they started shipping the Group One systems on Monday and say that they think they'll all be out within the next month. Presumably Group Two will ship after that, meaning they'll be shipping late May -- but they haven't actually announced that, just said there's news coming soon.

    They said they should be done with group 1 within the next month and group 2 will start immediately after.

    It's on the website, linked from the account/order page. Basically, first 10000 are shipping now, next 10k will follow and that will exhaust their 20k first batch they are getting from the factory. The rest will follow later. And your order number is your spot in the delivery queue. Mine is in 15000s, so not long now :)

      Mid 16000s for me glad to finally be getting my hands on it soon. Seems like a fun idea.

    https://help.play.date/orders/when-will-units-actually-start-shipping/ https://help.play.date/orders/when-will-units-actually-start... It says Early 2022 for Group 2, while Group 3 says Second Half of 2022.

    It's in the email they sent to me. It's probably mentioned elsewhere: The Current Estimates Your Playdate Is In: Group #2 Group #1 ~1 to 10,000 Late 2021 → Now Early 2022 Group #2 ~10,000 to 20,000 Late 2021 → Now Early 2022 Group #3 ~20,000 to 30,000 Still 2022 (Second Half) Group #4 ~30,000 to 40,000 Still 2022 (Second Half) Group #5 ~40,000 to 50,000 Still 2022 (Late Second Half) Kind of process of elimination if you make a distinction between early 2022 and second half, at this point early 2022 means by end of Q2.

I ordered as soon as I could when pre-orders went up. Unfortunately I was out and about and didn’t have a good cell signal so it took longer than I would have liked. I’m in Group 2, hopefully near the start. I can’t wait. Looks like a blast and I’d love to try my hand at developing for it.

  Something similar happened to me, I was so sad :( (I think I may have been over the pacific?)
