I can run complex dampers, range and precision and have a cloak.
I ran a maxed out scanning mlt Cal scout shotty old school style (sans cloak) and did great. It was amazing, even in a mlt suit I could see everybody. So I'm interested in cal.
And then there is Gal which everybody raves about. And I'm not so sure Min is for me.
However, I am very interested in Amarr and am anxious to see what they do with it.
Is it worth the wait?

Proto Amarr Scout here.
My fit
Viziam Scrambler Rifle
Kalaakiota Magsec
2x Complex Precision Enhancers
2x Complex Plates
1x Complex Armor Repairer
1x Complex Profile Dampener
ARN-17 Cloak Field
Compact Nanohive
I do just fine with it, great games, 34/0, 32/0, 24/2, etc etc. The Amarr scout is about your state of mind, it's terrible, but some of us can make it shine.

Obviously it doesn't fit for RP purposes, but wouldn't the CR be far superior there in practically every way? I mean, you'd lose out on a bit of front loaded alpha damage, but your DoT would be far greater.
Also 12 (or 5, come Bravo  ) PG.

I used to run CR, but it just made my skin crawl using min weapons.

If you're actually looking for a "scout" suit, I'd either say stay away from the Amarr or keep the SP and wait. If the numbers didn't change, the Amarr is the worst scout suit for not only its' bonuses, but also its' shield recharge and scanning abilities, which I believe are all lower than the other scout suits. Plus, I wouldn't really trust CCP to fix something enough to put 2.5 million SP into it.
Nova Knives are best sidearm.

I would skill Amarr Light Frame to 3, and save the rest for when they fix it(it can only be buffed!)
The Light has more shield than Min, and (i believe) more armor than Gal.
When going scout, it swaps over to 60/170 or something.
Personally i love the idea of the Amarr scout, just that my Galscout does everything better, other than straight up stacking Plates with logi support(in other words, Scrubbing it up)
Also worth noting is the fact you don't even need to fit a plate to hit 400 Hp, as you can simply put a shield on and be fine(but dual tanking...) while almost all of my Galscouts need at least an Enhanced Ferroscale, and with the buff to reps, you can run 1 complex/enhanced rep instead of a plate, and have more Hp and reps than gal, all while having 3 extra lows to work with.
Example fiting:
Am scout A/1(or light)
1 extender, 1 dmg mod or Recharger
Enhanced Armor Repair
Complex Dampener or plate of choice
Ferroscale of choice or Codebreaker
Kincat
Now you hack faster, run faster, AND have more Hp/reps than the typical Galscout.(now that i put that fit out, **** now i gotta skill into it!)

The Amarr scout is not a bad frame. The Amarr loyalists would have you believe it's the worst suit on the planet, but it's completely usable.
I've been experimenting with the Ak.0 - it's not that much worse than the Galscout. It -is- worse, but it's not by that much now.
Gal/Cal are better suits but the Amarr scout is very much a usable and viable suit. If you want to spec it, spec it.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.
