Three weeks ago, we unveiled the latest generation of our flagship product:
Raspberry Pi 5. Since then, we’ve shared insights into the overall
architecture of the platform, the RP1 I/O controller, the software stack,
the image signal processor, and some of our official accessories, including
the case, and the forthcoming updated PoE+ HAT.

Behind the scenes, we’ve been working hard with our friends at the Sony UK
Technology Centre in Wales (where your Pi is baked) to ramp up the
manufacturing and production test processes. Things have gone a little
faster than expected, and we’re happy to announce that the first
mass-production units will ship to customers this week. As promised, we’ll
be starting with subscribers to The MagPi and HackSpace magazines, who have
taken advantage of the Priority Boarding promotion.


By the end of next week, all existing Priority Boarding orders will have
shipped, and every Approved Reseller in a country where our compliance
paperwork has been signed off by the authorities will have received initial
stock of both 4GB and 8GB variants, so those of you who have pre-ordered
will start to see parcels arriving in your mailboxes. 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 – by then we expect you to be able to just buy one straight off the
shelf.

We’ve been excited to see the response of early users to Raspberry Pi 5, and
can’t wait to see what you do once you get your hands on it. Let us know
when you start tinkering with yours!

So far, the only Pi5's in the wild are with beta hardware testers, and those that got priority with the Mag-Pi magazine advance order codes.? The biggest issue will be the new BookWorm PiOS.? The windowing system is now Wayland, VNC is Wayfire and networking is now NetworkManager instead of DHCPD.
For a VNC viewer you need to use TigerVNC as realVNC viewer doesn't support the security methods used by Wayfire, and RealVNC server doesn't work with the Wayland windowing system.? Bookworm does run on all the older Pi's so you can give it a run on what you have.? Pi3 and older it automatically reverts back to XWindows due to the slower video processor.? Pi4 and up runs Wayland

Has anyone tried the PI5?
Are there any issues with amateur radio software?
