this is exactly what we needed, a camera to attach to an unobtainable device
- Grazester 4y agoEven in its height of "unobtainable" I was able to get one without having to try too hard and I was being picky about the configuration I wanted. I did have to buy from a German site but it was obtainable. I believe it should be much easier now.
- wyuenho 4y agothe height of unobtainable was just a couple of weeks ago, and it lasted for almost a year in which rpilocator was only showing a few shops in the world selling a few dozen pis in a different form factor you are looking for at a time.
- Grazester 4y agoIt certainly wasn't a couple weeks ago and this has been going on a lot longer than a years ago.
- geerlingguy 4y agoTo anyone looking, follow rpilocator.com. Supply has been slowly improving.
- bluehatbrit 4y agoI managed to get one via a rpilocator.com alert (used the rss feed to send myself an email alert) within about 2-3 weeks of setting it up. It's not perfect but it worked and I managed to get an 8GB Pi 4.

- ofrzeta 4y agoYeah, sometimes you can get one, however it doesn't make much sense to pay 150 Euros, or 100 for a 1GB version.
- pja 4y agoThe Pi foundation believes supply will steadily improve as this year progresses & will be back to ”you can buy any Pi you want today” by the end of the year. It’s not /great/, but given the supply chaos of the last few years it is what it is.
- sliken 4y agoLast I heard they were making 7M a year, with very few reserved for end users. To improve the situation they promised 100k reserved for end users. Seems much like the GPU fiasco where a company reserves all their product, leaving none for end users, and the market collapses (worst GPU sales in 20 hears).
