I received my board on June 5 ...
... the board is dated 2016-03-21 (I don't remember my backer number, but I got a tracking number and was told it would ship in late May)
I got mine a week and a half late... big deal ( I waited, patiently, for several months ... )
It was worth the wait... I have iddy bitty computers laying around all over the place here (my PineA64 is just another one now) but, I must say with all genuine respect, I love this board ! It really is a superior board to the RPi 3B even though its larger physically; this board doesn't waste any time on composite video, it has audio input with a stereo jack that makes sense, two gpio bus ports (euler, PI 2) and a powerful wifi daughter card with external antenna... very nice.
The Exp port makes sense, and is VERY good... I can't say enough, this thing is phenomenal... at the moment, I have no complaints; hoping to get a couple more of these.

edit: PS... almost forgot, 2GB of ram ! ... frankly, its the shortfall of the Raspberry PI 3B... not enough memory. The PineA64+ has the right hardware, the right memory, at the right price-point. Brilliant !
