 I suppose if I'm lucky in a way, maybe any small issues discovered in the first batch will also be addressed in time for the second batch....?

It's not because we don't like you or that you were too late -- No one has gotten one yet! However, as of right now, everyone who has registered into the system will get one! As of about midnight UTC on the 26th, the first batch of coupons did go out!

The sales team is in UTC+8 -- When preorders opened, it was 8pm their time, and as of my typing this (10 hours later), it is 5am! When they get back to work, that is when you might be able to start expecting coupons.

As for the distribution of coupons, I'll lay it out for you:

First early batch is 100 units. About 10 of those are going to developers. That means about 90 will be available for pre-orders. Coupons will be sent to the first 90 users to registered into the system, starting tonight (in Europe and US time zones) and over the next 72 hours or so. Those units will ship in about 4 weeks from now. 

The second batch is much larger -- 1000 units, all dedicated to preorders. These coupons will start being sent out in a couple weeks and stretch out to about 6-7 weeks from now. Units ship about 8-10 weeks from now.

I hope this clears things up.

Is there a time line for when the second(1000) is batch will be aiming to be delivered by given the coupons will go out in a couple of weeks. Basically would I get one delivered to the England by end of September, 1st week of Oct if I ordered as soon as I got my coupon? not sure how long shipping takes etc? On a long sabbatical  from mid Oct so don't want it to get stuck in customs/ sent back.

Thanks in advance for the support

I'll answer you when I know for certain, but end of September/ start of October is pretty much what we aim for. Once the units are built they ship very fast - literally in a matter of a few days (usually takes DHL less than 7 days to deliver in Europe/ North America).
