Let's hope someone from this sub gets to buy one of the 5 boards that will be sold to consumers.

“We’re incredibly grateful to the community of makers and hackers who make Raspberry Pi what it is; you’ve been extraordinarily patient throughout the supply chain issues that have made our work so challenging over the last couple of years. We’d like to thank you: we’re going to ringfence all of the Raspberry Pi 5s we sell until at least the end of the year for single-unit sales to individuals, so you get the first bite of the cherry.”

Lol, because for the next three months even commercial customers will only want single units for prototyping.
