Nope. I'm not gonna get one yet since the demand is so high and the supply is so low.

But in due time I'll get one.

And so Blizzard sent unto them this Brawl of Yogg, As a lesson for their sins of Pride and Greed, for he is the Prophet of Madness and RNG. On that day, the tavern descended into an era of chaos and darkness, until the weekend passed and everyone forgot all about it. Amen. Book of SMOrc, Verse 20, Chapter 4." - Feam T

Some more interesting stuff:

You can overclock it a bit. Even at 800MHz (700MHz is standard) it will barely reach body temperature. 1GHz shouldn't be a problem, but I ain't got one, so I don't really know :3

Update on the demand: I don't know how long ago this was, but the orders on RasPi was up in the 500.000 area.
That's a LOT.
They'll be shipping 200.000 soon (or have so already) to satisfy some of the demand.
Google has a job title called "Head of Black Community Engagement"..
I don't know whether to cry or laugh.. or both.

They've ramped up the manufacturing to 4000 "Pies" a day to meet the crazy demand. You can now buy more than one Pi per person. I think it's time I try to get one or two soon :)

Raspberry Pi gets their own Debian distribution called Raspbian, which gives roughly 4 times better performance compared to a normal distro.

He has even modded in a USB hub. All you have to do is just connect it to a power-socket and to a screen and you're good to go (possibly to a mouse too).

Someone built a Nixie Clock driven by it (those clocks are BADASS).
