Title: Possible reason for Avalon batch 2 extended delay Post by: cryptograd on June 01, 2013, 07:19:39 AM Seems like Yifu is scrambling to take care of some unforeseen hardware bug that occurred to one of the earlier batch 2 machines.
word is that all units going out after May 31st will have this bug fixed before being shipped out. reference: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1ffpif/warning_to_all_current_batch_2_avalon_owners/ Title: Re: Possible reason for Avalon batch 2 extended delay Post by: Bicknellski on June 01, 2013, 09:59:21 AM Seems like Yifu is scrabbling to take care of some unforeseen hardware bug that occurred to one of the earlier batch 2 machines. word is that all units going out after May 31st will have this bug fixed before being shipped out. reference: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1ffpif/warning_to_all_current_batch_2_avalon_owners/ I'd be worried if he we playing upwords... but scrabbling is ok right? https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRiMM96RYbCyn6-BH2L7okoHwV_N7pMohkuH1GlETdSv7UUj-2Y Looks like mrb to the rescue... and they are knocking off a fuse to resolve the issue. Scary for those with Avalon 2's for sure. I hope everyone reads this info.
