The Librem 13 fabrication is nearing completion, we should be expecting units in as early as the week of the 15th:

Note: We have pulled most of the coreboot development time and put it into the very excited testing of our theory on unlocking the Intel Management Engine (ME), which we hope to have some news on within the next week or so.

Dates:
August 15th – “green light” fabrication
August 20th – Todd on-site @ fabrication in Shenzhen
week 1 fabrication
