The announcement was end of October, but I think I could pre-order right now if I was feeling an urge. You are right though, announced != available or delivered.<br>

P.S.: I have a pi400 in use as "desktop" for my oldest kid, this is close to be actually generally usable, I would guess that changing a potential p500 from the pi400's 4GB to 8 GB together with the other imprivements the 5 brings might push it over the threshold into the truly useful category. Which probably means that either a potential pi500 will come late and probably with only 4 GB, but let's see how this works out now that the supply situation is less problematic.<br>
And I understand that there are other capable ARM based SoCs for homerouter/desktop duty, I just happen ot have a soft spot for the raspberry project ;)<br>
