Hi all,
Have people had reasonable success getting samples of Spartan3E parts? The XS3S100E, for example. I ask this because I got burned by the slow rollout of Spartan XC3S400s.

The XC3S100E engineering samples were quick to come through the rep (requested a month in advance of need). We do a lot of business with Xilinx so I'm not sure if our treatment was standard. The parts are alive.
The early XC3S100E FPGA samples are generally available at select accounts now. General sampling begins starting May with wide availability starting July. Please contact your local Xilinx distributor or representative if you have immediate needs. Production is planned for 3rd quarter 2005.
Just FYI, two of our distribution partners already have XC3S100E-based evaluation boards. In alphabetical order by distributor name ...
