I'm still hoping they'll give Gen 1 purchasers a significant break on Gen 2 devices, especially if ROI becomes elusive for those receiving October shipments. Us October folks could be in a tough spot with Sept. miners getting a head start and November units significantly less expensive.
If you're reading this KNC, can you address these concerns?
This!!!
Sitting in the same boat with my right after day 2 order 2xxx, according to KNC, early October shipment.
October customers are pretty much toast how it seems, September buyers will make their ROI (assuming they start shipping in mid-september) and in November devices according to KNCīs statement will cost a lot less.
Imo, KNC should figure something out for customers who are sitting in this October sandwich, to honour the trust these folks showed with pre-ordering, at least if they start shipping late, .
Iīm also wondering about, why KNC canīt (or they wonīt?) tell excact shipping dates.
Thatīs especially for the October customers very important to know.
In 5 weeks we are at the end of September already and every production company of the world should know 5 weeks before deadline an exact shipping date.
Theres no way they donīt know if everything is on track as they say (or even ahead of timeline).
So, that opens discussion for two different scenarios.
First, they wonīt tell us, cause they are very confident to start shipping very soon (within next 2 weeks) and they donīt want to give out too much information to their competitors.
Next announcement of them would be in 2 weeks, start of shipping (If Iīd be them and Iīd be more or less ready to ship, Iīd do it like this without announcing anything else before anymore).
Or sceanrio 2, they really canīt say cause of unknown variables (they donīt know if they get everything on time from their suppliers) and that would make it pretty unrealisitic that they start shipping in September.
