So, when can we get these laptops in EU? Pretty please? :-)

Supposedly until the “end of the year”, but I would really like an update on that.

Would be quite pissed, if they’d sorry out mid December, as I am somewhat holding off for them.

For cultural differences, I can see a comparatively huge market in Europe. But I am sure the logistics are considerable. For what it’s worth: Framework, many people here would prefer the US keyboard layout for programming; there is a market for what you got already, no need to wait for QWERTZ, if hardware localization is an issue!

Yeah, throw in a universal charger and if necessary, provide a source for EU plug mains leads. German distributors Reichelt and ELV would probably be happy to help you out there.

Seconded! A rough ETA would be appreciated since my MBP2013 is on it's last legs and I'm holding out for the Framework because I love the philosophy behind it.
