We are continuing to increase our production rate, with the aim of fulfilling all backorders, and getting Raspberry Pi in stock at all our Approved Resellers, by the end of the year

I feel like I've heard that last part a few years in a row.

As far as Pi4's go, you can pretty much get them now without fucking around (albeit only in 2GB and above). I imagine Pi5's will be difficult for a while. New releases always are.

Pi4 regular boards yeah. The CM4 (Compute module 4) boards are a bit of a bitch to find though.

I wonder if we'll see a CM5 and whether it'll be compatible with the CM4 interface boards

Ah cool. Last time I was looking for one was early in the year and I just gave up and got a different SBC.

They changed the board design to be much faster to produce by Sony, who manufactures them.

You have, and they have been steadily (but slowly) making progresss across the board.
