· Ultimakers problematic aftersales support
Yea Ultimaker wasn't fast when it was possible to order from them, except for some key components they could take 2-4 weeks to prepare an order.
@jenschr the thing is that for the parts you needed SHOULD be available. But for example you could just not buy the Ultimaker version of the controller and get a much cheaper panel to control the UMO (same connectors plug, and you can print your own case), is called 'RepRapDiscount Full Graphic Smart Controller' and it use to cost 25€ or so, you only need a new firmware that, for example, you could build it for your UMO on the fantastic @amedee firmware builder https://bultimaker.bulles.eu
The thing is, that the Ulticontroller comes with the UMO+ and it should be available to buy, at least the board without the wood case (that you could also design your own).
I get your pain, and I'm here just to try to help users (and because I lov 3dprinting). So, get a reprap discount full controller, or, ask to your reseller for the ulticontroller board, alone, they MUST, have it, or be able to order it by their internal channels, the part number is 1146 Ultipanel Rev 1.1 like the UMO+ github shows https://github.com/Ultimaker/Ultimaker-Original-Plus/tree/master/1146_Ultipanel_Rev_1.1
UMO+ and UMO use the same ultipanel, and with a custom firmware both can use the Cheap Reprap controller (has also SD Card and buttons etc). So hopefully with this you can get your printers working!

Yeah. I picked up a SD slot from Farnell along with some other stuff. Easy to solder on/off with a hot air gun. Crea ended up cancelling and refunding my order. I contacted my local distributor and they have promised to get one for me (but I'm still waiting for it).

While the upgrades/add-ons for the Ultimaker original has been discontinued you should still be able to get the spare parts through your local reseller. The Ultipanel rev1.1 is product no 1146 for ease of communication.

Unless I'm missing something, the SD card slot listed in the BOM should be available from Mouser for immediate dispatch.
