NMC wallet checks should be working again in the next few minutes.  Payments/earnings are going to be paused for at a minimum 24 hours, since 50% of my nodes were stuck on random blocks when I woke up this morning due to something broken in the hardfork block checking.  Normally just earnings would stop, but the *payment* namecoind also got stuck during these issues.

Maybe this has something to do with it:

I don't want to insult you but I did the same thing, copied the wrong address, could always generate a new nmc address on btc-e and try that.

Ok,so the jally is going to use 4.5 watts,this is what I found out about USB 2.0,tell me if I'm correct:

Besides a data link, USB provides 5 +/- 0.25 volts to power an otherwise unpowered device or charge a battery in a self powered device.
A USB controller or hub is required to power one unit load (100 mA, a low power load). It can optionally power up to 5 unit loads (500 mA, a high power load).
The spec is silent about intermediate loads, so I assume that the sources deal with just the two cases.
Either a load is low power (like a keyboard or a mouse) or high power (like an iPod or PDA).


500 milliamps = one half amp (1000 ma per amp).

So, .5 amps x 5 volts=2.5 watts.We'll definitely be needing those dual USB cables won't we  

I know there's a thread about this somewhere,but couldn't find it,sorry  

What USB hubs are good enough for this application (running multiple Jallies),I've never had a need for these,so I'm unsure of what powered hub requirements are needed.

Hmm so that seems to says they only worked out the expected figures today ... they must be behind in the schedule?

Follow the link silly.

Dear ShadowOfHarbringer,

Usually I don't respond to unfriendly posts, but maybe this one needs a bit of addressing. We've had the honor of having Sonny in our corporation
for the past year. He is a bright and honorable person who had come face to face with strong forces behind the scenes without knowing. Many movies
have been made to try and demonstrate how governments and lobbying powers operate. They can kill, sabotage, prosecute or pretty much do anything
they desire without consequences as they have the power, money and weapons to make their point.

The United States Government does not recognize international bounderies when it comes to its interests and demands. The attack on the PirateBay
servers in Sweden is a good instance. Should the owners of PirateBay been Americans, I'm sure they'd already been serving for life in some prison in USA,
under charges of money-laundry, tax evasion (ads on the site), child pornography and so on and so forth. It's easy to hurt people who are powerless.
Even in France this may happen, eventhough on a much smaller scale ( I can't recall any at this point ).

Regarding whether we are a scam or not, the several thousand shipped units can speak for itself. We've used the experience gained in mass production
of our singles in our SC production cycle (we've got a MyData Pick-And-Place and an Oven for high-speed and high-volume inhouse assembly). Someone
mentioned the backlog is already 5,000. On a production speed of 500 units a day for instance, 5,000 will only take 10 days. We've already prepared the
infratructue for very high volume production, since the great portion of the orders will come in after the SC is released to the public. 5,000 units is not much
compared to orders we expect to receive after SC release, so we're very ready for it.

I hope this message has addressed some of your questions.


Regards,
Nasser

1) It's relevant when taking pre-orders.  Had this information been known before Singles shipped, what do you think the investment would have been?  (I.e., that's fraud.)  Had this been known up to the point where BFL had a reasonable percentage of space parts on hand, the FTC would happily have gotten involved and shut down the company.  It has nothing to do with how it affects the products received afterward, because it's still nearly indistinguishable from a Ponzi. (I *love* that this is a valid argument on this forum.)  In fact, it's a "ponzi" run by a convicted felon, not just someone who was charged with passing bad checks.  Do you see how this looks?  Every single offering that is of more value than the previous just increases the correlation with "a classic ponzi," even if it's natural company growth.  BFL has created suspicion and doubt through its failures to meet its promises.  This information makes it seem as if it was part of a scheme rather than through incompetence or inexperience.

2) Is Inaba the "I only speak for myself so I can be an ass to customers" identity or do you actually speak for the company in this persona?  What does BFL_Josh have to say about this?

I like BFL's products once they get dialed in (even if they're ghetto right now), but its customer relations are really, really bad.  They've only gotten more adversarial since you joined the company.

Right, because what you want is someone who will lie to you and tell you comforting tales so you aren't so scared, right?  

I guess I can do that if you want... but I'd rather be honest and upfront with everyone instead of spinning the story and being generally a dirt bag like most large corporations.  But hey, if you want lies and spin instead of truth, I can provide that, too.

Give me a break.

The only people I can think of offhand that sends money to a company with only a vague idea of what they will
get in return is the bitcoin community and BFL. In the "race of greed" people forget common sense it seems. Having
a good idea of what you will get in return for your money, having actual proof that the device exists in some type of
form, and being able to have a somewhat solid time line for an expected delivery date is just good business sense.

But good business sense is lacking in this community based on the posts I have read around here for the last couple
of weeks. Naturally there are exceptions. But sending money to BFL with their previous track record is crazy. Show
the prototype/share the specs, be honest on a REAL delivery date for the first 100 units of each type, and stop being so secretive
about a product that is not rocket science. SHA256 for fucks sake. This is not an asic which can process IP packets 1000
times faster then Juniper or Cisco.

Oct is less then 3 weeks away. Nov 1st 7 weeks away. If they cannot produce what I would consider normal information
I list above on their website by tomorrow then everyone who already ordered should wonder wtf is going on.

YOU ARE THE CUSTOMERS. They provide a service/hardware. YOU PAID THEM. Yet you are their bitches. For real.
