My local dealer here in Lansing Michigan who deals through a distributor,
says that he can't get it before January. However, I picked it up in
Toronto at the WOC show there on DEC 5th. It is currently available from
several Canadian sources, and should be available mailorder from a
majority of US sources. I would expect it to show up soon in Germany.

It's been available here in the US for a couple of weeks (at my local
Amiga dealer).  Both versions for those who have 2.04 (just software and
no ROM) and the version for 1.X users (software and ROM) were available
for $45 and $90 US (respectively).

        Thanks

It is available here in sunny California for around $45 in a store.
I have not seen anything from mail order companies.

Our computer store picked up 20 copies at World Of Commodore in Toronto
a week ago, almost all have sold and we are now backordered for copies
without the 2.0 roms (there are actually two upgrade kits, one with
a rom for 1.2 and 1.3 users and one without a rom for 2.0 users).

me and a friend got ours this week so it should be available everywhere.

====================== end of compiled list ===========================

Comment to the last one: availability in the US does not guarantee that
it's available "everywhere"...

According to Stef, Workbench V2.1 is not yet available in France.
My local dealer an the 'AMIGA' magazine agree upon avaiability in
Germany in early 93.

Thanks to all of you who responded to my request.

I wish everybody a merry christmas and a happy new year]
