Decision
Availability
Ships. Lead times vary by config and region. Not ITAR-fun in the Digit/Figure sense — it is a catalog item.
All-in
Unit price is honest and incomplete. Hands, EDU compute, and people to program it are the rest of the check.
Plan-change
G1 EDU variants live on this URL. H1/H2 and R1 are separate models. A G1 refresh would be noted here; a renamed successor would get its own slug.
