Well,  at least according to this guys auction:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/BITFORCE-BUTTERFLY-LABS-JALAPENO-5-GH-s-Hashrate-BITCOIN-LITECOIN-ASIC-MINER-/330909603662?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d0bbfd74e

He has 4 auctions in all with the same title.   Perhaps a quick fraudulent item report to ebay is called for.   Hopefully none of his bidders are as stupid as he is.

It's incredible to see how people is bidding hard to buy a late preorder (January 2013). This is insanity. The one left holding the Jalapeno preorder will be screwed.

My only regret in not pre-ordering an ASIC, is that I can't re-sell the pre-order to dummies for way more than it will ever return.

Not really since they're only shipping Jalapenoes right now so the January 2013 order might actually arrive sooner then expected. The bigger units are all being re-designed and hence delayed.

Come on, that order will arrive very late this year, and it won't get a ROI even at the original price.

I'm amazed about how people can be optimistic with a company that fucked over for 8+ months.

I never said it would ROI at the original price. I leave that up to the math wizards.

Neither am I being optimistic. I'm just saying the people who ordered Jalapenoes will likely receive theirs before the people who ordered mini-singles or singles or mini-rigs.

At what difficulty/network hashrate does the jalapeņo become unprofitable? Sure, it may take months upon months, but all ASICs will still be making profits for at least a full year or two. From some quick numbers I saw, it costs $0.10 in electricity, and makes $30.00 in return per day. At what difficulty would you only make $0.10 a day? I think that number is further than closer.
