Errr, I thought the beta test machines had already shipped a couple of months ago?
most have shipped. amigakit is doing a bunch of testing on the final assembled package (such as updating the firmware, testing the DIMMs, etc.) prior to shipment to the 'beta testers' -- or at least, that is my understanding. given that there is only one guy doing that, it wouldn't have happened instantly. also the boards are being shipped all over the world. it takes weeks to clear customs in some places.
lots of people have them, lots of people are testing, lots of feedback has been given. and the final production version -- which was on display at amiwest -- was rock solid.
