I got sick of waiting to get one from the high street, and bought one from Amazon... not in the UK, however - they apparently haven't had any since day one. But for some reason Amazon.de gets regular supplies. I placed my order on a Sunday and had it delivered four days later. Postage was only six euros, and even with shipping and currency conversion fees it came in a couple of pounds *less* than the UK price.
It also seems like I need to create a new account in amazon.de. I guess I will wait until Nintendo fixes the supply to meet the demand. I sure waited over 4 months now, another 4 months shouldn't be a problem...

That also lets you compare different packages, which is nice.
