Look at the latest Spartan III datasheets (ds099-1.pdf). All devices are still marked as not released yet. From this group I expect that in the next weeks a batch of engineering samples (probaly S50/200/400/1000 ?) with get out to the distributors. Only the S50J is available (without BRAM/Multipliers).

Actually, we have had a number of 1000J's since the beginning of August last year.
They are not suppose to last too long in a 3.3V system, but they work great in a few designs we have especially with the new speed files (still needs to be faster though :-).
The problem now appears to be getting production parts in volume. I have wanted to place an order for months, but they can't give me a delivery date, so we can't launch the product :-(

Maybe you don't want enough ? - This is a press release that seems to be claiming high volume adoption ?
