I just got mine today. I got it through Sweetwater but I have had it on order since October of last year. I too was chasing deadline after deadline. It seemed as if I would never get it. I was very persistent and kept pestering my sales rep with constant emails. I got on the "list" and somehow I lucked out.
My Sweetwater rep said it might be April before they have more . As Admin Knut indicated it is in high demand and your bet bet is to bug Synthax.
Sweetwater claims to have a good relationship with RME. Good luck, just keep at it.
P.S. I have a bit of a learning curve on setting it up with my current studio requirements, but so far it seems to rock. Just barely got it turned on and some sound
running through it.
