Mindboards

hey,
I'm curious if EV3 sets can already be preordered, either in the U.S. or in Europe.
Has anybody got some related links ?

You can pre-order the Education version from the Education site.

can you pls give me the link? I am re-routed if I try to open the Lego Mindstorms site from Germany and land in the middle of nowhere :(

What I was missing is that there is an extra legoeducation url, I always tried to get there via Lego.de or Lego.com
Thanks for this!

Is there also are way to preorder the custom set?

The education BoM is really nice and probably a lot more suitable for your needs

Make sure to be extra super nice to John over the next while, while he works on the Not Quite EV3 programming environment, or he'll go on a long (well deserved) vacation and force you to use the graphical programming environment, Muahaha! To be fair, it's actually quite a nice IDE but it may not be quite your taste.

education BoM - is that the base set that I meant?

but - no: graphical environment - never, never, never !
