In a blog post titled "Steam Deck production update (it's good news)," Valve has announced that it will be working its way through Steam Deck orders quicker than anticipated. "Many of the supply chain shortfalls that affect Steam Deck are gradually clearing up," explains the post, "and we're continuing to ramp production, so we're able to produce more Decks faster than ever before."

This means that everybody who's currently in the queue to receive a Steam Deck should get their email confirmation by the end of the year. Many people who were in the "Q4 or later" time slot have been moved up to "Q3 (July-September)" and anyone who hasn't has been put in the more definitive "Q4 (October-December" timeframe.

For the time being, new orders will be also be put into the Q4 time slot, though Valve acknowledges that "if these queues fill up" then new orders will have to wait until Q1 of 2023.

How much import tax+var do I expect to pay if I order this from EU?

None, in fact I'm pretty sure it's shipped from NL.

Will it ever come to latin america?

Hardly....too expansive with importation taxes would be very niche and we are already talking about a niche product for the northern hemisphere so no I wouldn't count with it hitting poor markets.

Cool I've only been waiting 14 months for mine. FOURTEEN MONTHS.

I'm about to give up on this thing seriously.
