Anyone received an OMAP-L137 EVM from the batch promised for mid to late April?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP-L137

When I called last week, I was told these had slipped into May but there was otherwise no specific info. Worse, they said the entire lot is spoken for and could not tell me if my unit had made the cut for May delivery or would be in the next batch (we ordered 3 weeks ago). Just wondering what others are finding...

    Ted,

    This is not common. I just confirmed with the support line, they are waiting for the manufacturer to inform the lead time for the pending orders. I'm sorry I do not have better news.

    Ted:

    I ordered about the same time as you.  After inquiring three days ago, I got an email today
    stating that my order would be shipped in mid to late June.. I then telephoned and got the same
    response from a real person who further said there was no more information she could give me.

    I found no assurance from the conversation  as to what will truly happen in mid June 
    Probably as you I can't delay my project indefinitely.  I may now go back to ADI as
    I have developed several products with the SHARC. 

    I like TI and wish someone at TI would look deeper into this and give us the real scoop as to
    what is going on or at least what the problems and uncertainness are, so I could make some
    informed decision as to managing my project.

    Regards

    James

    James, Ted, Others,

    Sorry for issues in procuring the EVMs. We are trying really hard to make the EVMs available as soon as possible.

    This post is to confirm that we will have stock and will be shipping OMAP-L137 EVMs the week of June 1st.

     

    Best Regards,

    Gagan

    We received our kits ordered through Digi-Key on April 13 this afternoon, but not our order placed directly through the TI eStore a week later.

    We just contacted Digikey and are being quoted 16 week lead time?  I have a board from last September but was going to spin an extender board to connect to the EVM prior to full layout.  Wanted a spare in case smoked one but if 16 weeks then that places project at high risk and may have to design the OMAPL137 out.  Anyone getting any better visibility into this or is this possibly just a standard time quote and Digi doesn't know when TI is shipping boards.  See 250 were supposed to be shipped June 1 but they could be spoken for as well.  I could deal with 4-6 weeks put can't put all our development on having just one board.

    Thanks,

    Kev

    Hi,

    I contacted the support line and the estimated availability date for the OMAP-L137 starter kit is mid to late June 2009.

    Thanks Mariana,

    I'm not sure why Digikey is quoting what they are.  We put an order in and they are still quoting mid-Sept.  I'll put one in at the TI eStore as well and see what happens.

    Thanks again,

    Kev
