They weren't available when I bought my 2011 S4 because of the earthquake in Japan. This week I was told by my dealership that they are trickling in. I still haven't received mine though.

My dealer said that camera parts would not likely be available for cars currently being delivered until the first quarter of next year.
(Still waiting for my S4 to show up; scheduled to arrive at the dealership next week).

This is the same information we have to offer people at the dealership. There is no guaranteed timeframe at the moment, 1st quarter next year is best case speculation.

For those w/ 2011s: contact your SA/dealership. They should be offering free AudiCare for the inconvenience if you did not receive the backup camera. Not sure about 2012's, but may be worth a call.

I'm not sure about AoA, but it appears that (as here) it is up to each individual to work out a settlement. Should be and are are two different verbs and concepts.
