Hi,
I am not sure if this the the correct way to reply or not, but I have
just read the email from Glyn in Vol. 25 Issue 1 re the above topic.
I am in the UK, and only found out about he MinnowBoard Max yesterday,
and now wish I had known about it earlier.
Anyway, I immediately ordered one from Mouser and received a
confirmation first thing this morning.
I then telephone them to clarify the supply position, and so far as
could ascertain, they haven't actually received any boards at all
yet... if anyone has had one from then... p[lease do let us know!
the mouser rep provided you incorrect information. circuitco has been
shipping weekly to mouser.
On the Google + MinnowBoard page the manufactures made a statement a
week ago, saying that "we are currently doing batch builds of 300
units at a time, but starting next week we ramp up to 1000 units per
batch. if that goes well for the next 3 week we step up to 2500 units
per batch."
Just how many of thee will stay in America, or indeed what the total
back order status must be now, I have no idea, but Mouser (U.K.)
currently have over 1000 pre-orders, but told me they still have no
idea just how many they will receive, or even when.
when mouser receives a product such as the minnowmax, it is not
allocated for one division or another, so if you have order from
mouser-uk, it's still mouser.
the last 300 unit build went extremely well and the green light has been
given to ramp up to the 1000 unit builds for the next 3 to 5 weeks.
the amount of pre-orders that were placed was completely unexpected and
circuitco is pushing the schedule forward to meet the demand.

I know that probably doesn't really help at all, but I thought it
worth posting anyway,
