You're got BFL, but speaking as a customer of theirs for years now, don't expect your hardware anytime soon. They do make really nice products, tho. You could get a DIY or K16 kit with Avalon chips, but those are about 3 months out. Third and final option is ASICMiner devices. They sell a blade for 50BTC, or a little USB device for 2BTC. For just getting into mining, that little USB stick is prolly your most affordable bet. |
