Ordering a Beagleboard outside the US
Tom Cooksey
getting "The following parts cannot be exported to your destination
and will be deleted from your order" on the Digi-Key website. I also
noticed someone say they have run out, but more boards will be shipped
later this week.
My concern is that all the Rev. B boards will sell out again, before
the problems shipping outside the US have been resolved. So no-one
outside the US is going to get a Beagleboard until Rev. C, which is
November at the earliest.
Is this a possibility? Do I need to contact my fiancee's great aunt's
brother's son-in-law, who lives in Florida, and get it shipped to him
for him to ship it to me? Or is there no danger in waiting? :-)
Cheers,
Tom

I tried it yesterday with same result. Once they fix this there still
could be problem with either too expensive shipping (sadly it cannot be
computed on the site right now, I hope they offer cheap and slow USPS)
or not accepted credit card issued outside of US.
Anyone from EU who already bough something from US Digi-key store?

That's the first time, that they don't send us this part.
Will try this next day again, but they told us that there are no stock at the moment.

I don't by a lot of electronics parts these days, but when I do, I
tend to buy from Digikey. Domestic orders over $25 have free shipping.
Frequently I have to look around for something I might need to get the
order over $25 :) Basically, Digikey is a pretty good supplier, at
least for the US based crowd.

here seems to be that they won't ship to Europe. Has anyone managed to
order one from over here? Any plans to set up some distributors in
Europe?
Thank you,

BeagleBoard anywhere outside the US. They claim that there's an export
restriction in place (I'm not an expert in US law so I have no idea
why it would be restricted for export to Europe). So I guess someone
at TI needs to talk to them and get this solved, this is getting a bit
ridiculous. Or just plainly state that the board is "US Only" visibly
on the beagleboard.org site and be done with it.
What's weird is that I saw a press release about a company in India
that is selling the BeagleBoard. Is it exportable to India but not to
Europe? Or is it actually manufactured there and they don't export it
at all?
Thank you,
Razvan

and they fully expect to overcome this issue soon. They ship OMAP3530
parts overseas and it is the OMAP3530 which has the export
restriction. They required some additional information from us to get
going, but that has been provided now. It was my mistake that they
did not know that this was required in advance of the launch. They
are working now to put the appropriate reporting mechanisms in place.
Again, my apologies for this hiccup. There is tremendous interest in
Europe, India, China, and South America. There will be some
restricted countries, but those are typically well-known and you'll
know if you live there. You will be able to purchase from Romania.

FYI.
I ordered my board yesterday and it was backordered.
Today I got a notification that it has shipped. Hope others are as lucky!

It is cranes software from Bangalore. I believe that they will be also
getting from digi-key only. They have priced the board at 9999 INR,
which comes around 232 USD. I had sent an e-mail to them ordering one
for me, but no response. I think they are also waiting for export
clearance issue to get resolved.
