I wouldn't be at all surprised if it's close to a year before a majority of people actually see one. Not to throw cold water on anyone's hopes (because I know how that feels) but, the last time I signed up to buy the latest and greatest technology similar to this type of effort, it turned into a very long waiting game, even for the folks (like me) who got in on the first wave. I'd get occasional updates from them saying, essentially, "Hey, we didn't forget about you. It's just taking a lot longer than we expected." As with a lot of engineering driven efforts, they kept revising the design to cram more features into the device right up to when they started producing them. They kept apologizing for the delay, to the point where you could tell they were very uncomfortable with the progress. I eventually got mine, something close to a year after I signed up and paid my money. By then, I'd already found something else that would do much the same thing and I'd forgotten all about the device, until it showed up in my mailbox one day. I signed up for a Ping, and I hope they become available in something significantly less than a year, because it sounds like a much more cost effective solution to tracking your drone than Marco Polo. Until then, there's a lot of other things that will have my attention. Good luck to anyone else who's "on the list".
