Hi

If you go over to the ever accurate Digikey site, you will find that the F9P module is now obsolete. That may be a new record
for “introduced but not in stock yet” to “gone and never will come back”.

One might also note that they now have the uBlox version of the evaluation board for the F9P in stock right now. Not a lot of them
in stock, but in stock.

Digikey reports as obsolete stuff they discontinue but that may still be
carried by the manufacturer or other distributors. It is not always a
reliable indication of the product's general availability.

Hi

I’m pretty sure that uBlox is still quite willing to sell their newest product to the
world. Are they still going to sell them in ones and twos through distribution?
Who knows ….

The way Digikey does things has always been a bit “interesting”. Trying to read
much into their zigs and zags never has been of much use. It is fun to watch
though.

If somebody is looking for the uBlox version of the module on a board for the
F9P, this may be your one chance to get it from Digiey … or maybe not …  :)
At the price they have them listed at, it’s certainly a better deal than the other
boards out there.
