Unless you live in a part of sweden that's 3 hours drive away from me you should have it this week.

Oslo to UK is next day apparently - mine is coming tomorrow! Very exciting!
to the US its like 3-4 days tops, its legit only takes that long because of customs clearance or if it hits on a friday and you have to wait until Monday, etc...
Track the package and you see how fast it moves.
As fast as I can, with a bit of luck before Christmas. IC, parts-shortage in general and Chinese National day holiday slows stuff down.
For future stock, I'll either try my best to keep it in stock like the other stuff I sell, or stop selling it completely if the world decides a 40USD china board is the way to go.
I'm not a big fan of pre-orders, lists etc and try to avoid it if I can.

I'm pretty sure there will still be people who want the good stuff. the enthusiasts normally profer quality, Many turn only to knockoffs because demand isn't met (gdemu, anyone?)
And the people know what quality they can expect from you
This hit me right in the feels
Got some of the new cables in, the hdmi cable is a little too long but works. Im very happy with the right angle USB otg cable. Still have a few more cables on the way to test.
The cables @invzim included though feel more substantial and of better quality though. Once I get all the cables and the 2nd Jamma Expander I got I will do some testing to see if I notice any difference.

Cleannnnnnn!! I love it
I ordered some hdmi flat ribbon cables to see how those work, not expecting much, being that its a digital signal, hopefully, there is no interference, etc..Cleannnnnnn!! I love it
Im working on a plexi case until @hursit makes a proper case

would be cool if it were similar to the light blue metal boxes the cave games used to come in
I have a few empty ones of those cases, maybe I should send one to Hursti and repro it to fit/work with the Jamma Expander, but I think he would need a minimum order quantity to make them.
I'm sure there's better ways of approaching this (I'm no designer of cases that's for sure... I do normally buildings for a living), but here's a quick and dirty implementation of a 3D printed case. It'll fasten together via M3 bolts and heat threaded inserts, aka crap that's in my parts bin.
Due to how dense the PCB is in terms of buttons, LEDs and other stuff that needs to be seen or physically accessed, I decided to make the case as open as possible, while still having it (barely) enclose the PCB. That way you can put stuff on top of the case or even flip it upside down if needed, but still be able to access everything. If I owned a laser cutter, I would've probably made a slit for a piece of plexi to slide into and cover the top... Maybe someday. I'll also probably implement a 4010 fan mount later if I think of a way to do it, since I have a bunch of spares lying around from 3D printing.
I'll print and test fit this when I have time.

The hdmi flat ribbon cable arrived, just tested it for fitment, hopefully it works just fine. Obviously, you don't want to mess with this connection too much, so a case is a must Ithink.
Now just waiting on the right angle barrel connector.

Finally got the jamma extender! The post company managed to squish the box but the items inside seem to have made it 
Really awesome having everything powered from the jamma harness Awesome work invzim!
I have not given it much time at all, but the buttons don’t work for me but I am wondering if it doesn’t play well with the spitfire I have in place as well.
And the only thing I am worried about which I also mentioned before to invzim is the usb cable. It is very rigid and pushing it up to fit the jamma connector puts strain on both USB ports. Might look into some alternative cable

Check out 'Troubleshooting Input' and check on the OLED, https://irkenlabs.com/jamma-expander/operation
Kind of hard to get a good photo quick, but there should be, if not fantastic, adequate clearance
