I looked at RISC-V SoCs last year and I couldn't find anything at all with support for RVV. Just a lot of "coming soon", "in progress", and "preorder now". Maybe the situation has improved since then.

When last year? The CanMV-K230 has RVV 1.0 and shipped in November 2023, just two years after RVV 1.0 was ratified. So "nothing at all" was already false before January 1 last year. The BPI-F3 (8x X60 cores with 256 bit VLEN RVV 1.0) was announced in February 2024 and shipped in May. The Lichee Pi 3A and Milk-V Jupiter with the same SoC were not far behind it, and the MuseBook and DC-Roma II laptops were not far behind them. We now also have the Orange Pi RV2 with the same SoC for $30 (2 GB RAM) to $50 (8 GB) It's probably going to be a while before we see the next generation but there are half a dozen different machines available with the current best mass-production RVV 1.0 chip.
