Framework have been available in Australia for years. A few years back I ordered one and it shipped from Taiwan to regional South Australia in about a week. I was pissed off because they almost beat an order from PCcasegear. They are manufactured in and ship from Taiwan, not trumpistan.
It's available. But, still ships from overseas last I checked.
US company though apparently, but didn't realise they ship from Taiwan.
One thing that is interesting, is you can get a riscv board and an arm board. Would be good if they have an elite Broadcom board though
