Has anyone actually taken delivery of one of these?

Is it actually for sale anywhere?  Overseas?   Is anyone using it?

No "normal" climber dude/chick has.

Anyone who posts here would most likely already have posted about their delivery had they received it. We know they're coming, right now the big issue is REI's less-than-consistent method of dealing with the preorders. 

They exist in the wild with some testers/pros/etc but with the cause of the most recent rescheduling of their release date being stated as needed to remanufacture aspects of the internal wheel to better deal with a larger rope diameter range, it's questionable whether any of the final production styles are readily available in the wild.

My REI order still says it will be delivered to the store (San Diego) on or before 12/2.

I emailed wild country a few weeks ago and just got this today:

Thanks for your interest in the Revo. REI will be receiving the initial Revo shipments before the end of the year then additional specialty retailers should have the Revo in stock come early Spring.

My Paypal account just got a hit from REI for sale of the Revo. I'm assuming that means it's on its way, although I have received no confirmation email.

It was probably a month or more ago that I ordered it the second time

I ordered on Oct. 31 and have not gotten a shipment email. Chatted with a rep online and she said I could get it shipped to the store by 12/8. She revealed that REI has only ordered 48 units!!

I ordered two of them at the same time. One shipped yesterday and is scheduled for delivery Monday. Online chat at REI says the other is expected in January...

The yields must be really low, or tons of them going back after Q/A. They may have made something that works well after a fine tuning, but is hard to manufacture in quantity.

I have a tracking number for mine now.

I wanted to get one for my sister as a Christmas present but it doesn't look like that will happen at this rate!

How many days until we can get a full review from someone on how to use it for TR and lead solo, and who is going to be the first brave sole to try it.
