If this is how calm it really is, I'll be surprised.

Calm? Upto an average of 240 blocks solved per day is calm?

based on reading things around here batch #1 is not complete. As is not everyone who ordered one has it yet.

Out of three hundred, how many? I'm not going to add the 5 or 10 outstanding ASICs to the model - that inaccuracy is tiny compared to the other assumptions 've had to make.

I agree.   I can personally confirmed just about 100 through public and private disclosures.   And we have to assume that not everyone is going public and the hashrates doesn't lie.

Units for top graph's ordinate should be ghps not thps  :)

Seems rather conservative, my calculations suggested more 60,000,000 difficulty by June/July. But then Avalon and BFL aren't shipping as quick as they claimed either.
