Unfortunately I'm rather disappointed with regard to the Raspberry Foundation living up to its obligations. They had made a deal with Nokia for a "Qt on Pi" device program that would get 400 units into the hands of Qt developers, and these were supposed to be among the first to go out:

However, they never managed to get the expected page up where one would redeem the coupon code. Eventually an email-based way was put in place, but to this day, nobody in the programme has received their Pi.
Yes, this is a "didn't get free stuff" whine, but still, they promised and never delivered.
